Every named river in the Adirondack Park — the Hudson, the Moose, the Raquette, the Sacandaga, and the rivers that drain the High Peaks.
Middle Branch Dead Creek threads through the Paradox Lake region — a secondary drainage in a valley system better known for its named lakes than its tributaries. The creek feeds into the larger Dead Creek watershed, which eventually joins the Schroon River drainage south of Paradox Lake itself. No public fishing reports and no maintained access points in the DEC records, which means this is either genuinely remote feeder water or it crosses enough private land to keep it off the recreational map. If you're poking around the logging roads east of Paradox, you'll cross it — but you won't find a trailhead sign.
