Farrington Brook runs through the Saranac Lake region with minimal public documentation — no fish surveys on record, no marked trailheads in the state's current mapping, and no lean-tos or campsites tied directly to its drainage. It's the kind of tributary that shows up on the DEC's hydrography layer but lives mostly in the realm of local knowledge: a seasonal flow feeding into a larger system, known by name to anglers and paddlers who've traced the watershed but absent from the standard trail guides. If you're working from a topo map or chasing a connector stream between named ponds, Farrington Brook is there — just don't expect signage or a parking pull-off. Best intel comes from talking to someone at a local fly shop or the DEC's Ray Brook office.
