Garnet Lake

Garnet Lake partially developed lakefront in Johnsburg that offers primitive tent camping along the road and several paddle in sites. The tent campsites are too high on embankment over the road to allow for drive-in use, but it is beautiful lake with ample paddling opporunties.

Along the Mill Creek

|

One of the best parts of the internet, is you can go to the Adirondacks without even leaving home. Some beautiful country along the Mill Creek, which runs on the backside of Crane Mountain.

Ross Mountain

|

On the state land along the east side, there are several clearings where there once where extra campsites developed. These areas, besides the section where the road runs right on the edge of the lake, gives you a good view of Ross Mountain, and just out of the frame, Mount Blue.

Mud Pond Trail

The Mud Pond Trail runs from Mud Pond Road to Garnett Lake.

Mud Pond is located 1/10th mile south of Mud Pond Road Parking Area, and Round Pond is 7/10th mile from the second Mud Pond Road Parking Area. The trail drops about 100 feet in elevation to Round Pond. You can then hike back to Garnett Lake.
