Pine Brook.
Pine Brook drains north through the Long Lake township — one of dozens of named tributaries feeding the Raquette River drainage in this part of the central Adirondacks. No formal access orfish survey data on record, which typically means state land corridors or private holdings with limited public documentation. Streams like this often serve as seasonal spawning runs for brook trout from the main stem, or they hold resident populations in the deeper pools if the gradient allows. Worth checking the DEC stream-access maps if you're paddling or fishing the Raquette and curious about the feeder systems.
Pine Brook has public access. Summits nearby include Platt Hill.
