Raquette River, with a number of public access points, along NYS Routes 30 and 3 near Tupper Lake on the Olympic Trail and Adirondack Trail, by Joel Augenstein
Great Bend and Felts Mills Recreation Trail
Olympic Byway, County Rt. 3, near Great Bend in Jefferson County
Felts Mills Creek traverses under a bridge crossing Route 3 in the hamlet to the Black River and through a forest.
Between the towns of Deferiet and Black River, along the northern edge of the Black River, is a 2-mile-plus trail, most of which is wooded. The western end of the trail looks to afford the easiest parking and access. Take Route 3 to Felts Mills, turn north on Route 283, cross the river and turn onto Pearl Street at the first intersection. Look for signs and acceptable parking. Classified as a stocked brook trout stream; offers outdoor enthusiasts public access to fishing.
