Raymond Brook runs through the Old Forge area — one of dozens of small tributaries feeding the Fulton Chain system and the broader Moose River watershed. No formal fish stocking records on file, but the stream likely holds native brook trout in its upper reaches if flow and temperature hold through summer. Without maintained trail access or a known put-in, Raymond Brook is one of those named waters that exists more for watershed mapping than recreation — a connector rather than a destination. If you're poking around Old Forge backcountry by bushwhack or exploring the drainage by canoe, it's there; otherwise, the Fulton Chain lakes pull the attention.
