Moshier Reservoir

Moshier Reservoir is a 414-acre impoundment on the west slope of the Adirondacks, built in 1916 to regulate flow for downstream industry. Public access is limited — the shoreline is largely undeveloped and best reached by paddlers willing to navigate from the put-in on the northeast end.
