Jenkins Brook

Jenkins Brook threads through the forested lowlands of the Tupper Lake region — one of dozens of small tributaries that feed the Raquette River watershed without drawing much attention from guidebooks or trail maps. No formal access points or designated campsites, but the brook is typical of the quieter waters in this part of the Park: slow current, tea-colored from tannins, bordered by mixed hardwoods and the occasional hemlock stand. If you're paddling the Raquette or poking around the backroads near Tupper Lake, you'll cross Jenkins Brook on a culvert or see it marked on the DeLorme — a named water, but not a destination.
