Every named river in the Adirondack Park — the Hudson, the Moose, the Raquette, the Sacandaga, and the rivers that drain the High Peaks.
The Cedar River flows west out of the southern High Peaks and winds through a long, roadless valley before feeding the Cedar River Flow near Indian Lake — one of the quieter stretches of moving water in the southern Adirondacks and a traditional canoe corridor for paddlers working the Moose River Plains or the Northville-Placid Trail. The river runs through mixed hardwood and spruce lowlands, with long flat sections broken by occasional quickwater; it's more known as a paddling route than a fishing destination, though the upper reaches likely hold wild brookies in the colder months. Access is limited — this is backcountry water, best reached by multi-day trip or via the primitive road network around the Moose River Plains when seasonal gates are open.
