Fishing Brook Mountain.
Fishing Brook Mountain rises to 3,550 feet in the Saranac Lakes Wild Forest. The herd path from the Floodwood Road trailhead is unmarked and rough—plan on bushwhacking and allow extra time for navigation.

What the summit is doing today.
- Ice and snow linger above 3,000 ft — carry microspikes even when the trailhead is bare.
