Little River drains northwest out of the Saranac chain and winds through lowland forest before joining the Raquette River near the town of Tupper Lake — a quiet, tea-colored flow through mixed hardwood and spruce bog, more paddle route than destination. The upper sections see occasional canoe traffic from paddlers linking the Saranac Lakes to the Raquette, but most of the riverbank is privately held or otherwise undeveloped, making access outside of launch points sparse. It's a connector water — useful if you're moving between drainages, otherwise overlooked in favor of the lakes it threads together.
