West Mill Brook drains west out of the Paradox Lake basin — a small tributary system in the broader Lake Champlain watershed, tucked into the low hills east of Schroon Lake. The stream doesn't show up on most recreation maps and there's no formal trail or public access noted in DEC records, which usually means it's crossed by old logging roads or reached by way of posted land. No fish data on file, though small freestone brooks in this drainage typically hold wild brookies if the gradient and flow are right. If you're poking around the Paradox Lake area and see a blue line on the quad map, this is one of those — worth investigating if you're already there, but not a named destination.
