McKenzie Brook

McKenzie Brook drains east through the Paradox Lake region — one of those named tributaries that appears on USGS quads but rarely makes it into guidebooks or fishing reports. The stream cuts through mixed hardwood forest between Route 74 and the lakeshore settlements, part of the quiet drainage network that feeds the Schroon River watershed. No formal access points or maintained trails follow the brook itself; if you're on it, you're likely bushwhacking between parcels or crossing it on a woods road. Check with local landowners before exploring — most of the corridor is private ground.
