Every named stream in the Adirondack Park — the feeder waters that line the High Peaks valleys and fill the ponds.
Aldous Brook drains a small, forested watershed west of Indian Lake village — one of dozens of feeder tributaries that make their way into the Indian Lake reservoir system. The brook holds no fish survey records and no marked trail access, which means it's either too small to support a population or it's slipped through the data cracks — common for the low-gradient streams threading through private timber lots in this part of the southern Adirondacks. If you're on the water in Indian Lake proper, you might cross Aldous Brook's inlet without noticing; if you're bushwhacking or logging-road exploring, you'll cross it on foot. Worth a look if you're mapping the hydraulics of the basin, otherwise a reference point on the map rather than a destination.
