Cascade Brook runs north off the northwest shoulder of Pitchoff Mountain, draining into the west branch of the Ausable River near the Cascade Lakes — not to be confused with Cascade Mountain's drainage on the other side of NY-73. It's one of several small feeder streams in the Cascade Lakes basin, feeding cold water into a drainage corridor that sees heavy traffic but little stream-specific attention. The brook itself is roadside-adjacent but not a named destination; most hikers cross it without stopping en route to Pitchoff or the Old Mountain Road trailheads. No fish data on file, but typical High Peaks tributary — small, cold, intermittent flow depending on snowmelt and recent rain.
