Pyramid Brook

Pyramid Brook drains north off the flanks of Hurricane Mountain, cutting through mixed forest before joining the East Branch of the Ausable River near the hamlet of Keene — one of several small, steep feeder streams that keep the Ausable system cold and oxygenated through summer. The brook takes its name from Pyramid Mountain, a minor wooded summit east of the watercourse, not from any particularly pyramidal feature of the stream itself. It's not a destination water — no formal access, no fishery data on record — but it's the kind of tributary you cross on approach hikes or hear from a tent site, moving fast after rain, barely a trickle by late August. Worth noting only if you're mapping drainage patterns or accounting for every named water in the watershed.
