Dry Brook

Dry Brook runs through the Keene Valley corridor — one of dozens of small tributaries that drain the High Peaks watershed into the East Branch of the Ausable River. The name shows up on USGS quads but not in most trail guides; it's the kind of stream that matters more to the hydrology of the region than to the average hiker's itinerary. No recorded fishery data, no formal access points, no lean-tos or designated campsites tied to the drainage. If you're bushwhacking the ridgelines above Keene Valley or tracing feeder streams during spring runoff, you'll cross it — otherwise it stays off the list.
