Cedar Brook

Cedar Brook runs through the Keene valley system — a tributary network that feeds the broader Ausable River watershed. Without maintained trail access or designated campsites, it's one of the smaller, quieter drainages in a region better known for its High Peaks trailheads and the main branches of the East and West Ausable. No fish data on file, which often means brook trout in the headwaters if the gradient's right, or it means the stream runs too seasonal or too steep to hold anything year-round. If you're bushwhacking or piecing together old logging roads in the Keene backcountry, you'll cross it.
