Falls Brook

Falls Brook drains north out of the Keene Valley highlands and feeds into the East Branch of the Ausable River near the town center — one of dozens of named tributaries in a watershed dense with cold headwater streams. The name suggests a drop or cascade somewhere in the upper reach, but without maintained trail access or a DEC lean-to anchor, this one stays off most recreation maps. It's brook trout water by default in this drainage, though no stocking or survey records surface in the state database. If you're poking around the upper East Branch by bushwhack or old logging trace, Falls Brook is a landmark worth a waypoint — but not a destination in itself.
