Rooster Comb Brook drains the northeast shoulder of Rooster Comb Mountain in Keene — a small, steep tributary that feeds into the Johns Brook watershed before making its way to the East Branch of the Ausable. The brook cuts through a mix of hardwood and conifer on a relatively short run, gaining elevation quickly in the upper reaches and likely running high only during spring melt and heavy rain. It's named for the mountain above it, which forms part of the Great Range horseshoe visible from the Johns Brook Valley. This is backcountry drainage — no road crossings, no fishing pressure, no named campsites — more likely encountered as ambient sound on a bushwhack than as a destination in itself.
