Dead Creek

Dead Creek drains north through the Keene Valley, crossing under NY-73 east of the village — a cold-water flow fed by snowmelt and spring seepage from the valley's eastern ridges. The creek gets occasional attention from fly anglers working pocket water in early season, though there's no public fisheries data to confirm what's holding in the pools. Most visitors pass it without noticing: it's one of those working Adirondack streams that moves water efficiently from high ground to the Ausable without much ceremony. Access is roadside pull-off wherever NY-73 crosses the flow, with the clearest stretches between Keene and St. Huberts.
