Thirteenth Brook runs through the Indian Lake township in the south-central Adirondacks — one of dozens of small streams in the region that drain into the Cedar River Flow system or directly into Indian Lake itself. The name follows the old surveyor's convention of numbering tributary streams along a main watercourse, though which river it originally branched from isn't immediately clear from modern maps. No fish data on record, no marked access points, no nearby trail infrastructure — this is working forest and private inholding country, where most small brooks stay off the recreational radar. If you're sorting through DEC atlases or planning a bushwhack route in the Indian Lake Wild Forest, Thirteenth Brook is a landmark, not a destination.
