Every named stream in the Adirondack Park — the feeder waters that line the High Peaks valleys and fill the ponds.
Salmon River flows north through the Blue Mountain Lake township — a working stream in the central Adirondacks that drains a patchwork of beaver meadows and softwood flats before joining the Cedar River system. The name likely references historical brook trout runs rather than Atlantic salmon, though local fish data is sparse and the river doesn't appear on most angler maps. Access is either by bushwhack from township roads or as a crossing point on longer through-routes in the area — this is drainage geography, not a destination water. If you're paddling the Cedar or poking around the Blue Mountain Wild Forest, you'll cross it eventually.
