Gull Lake
Gull Lake is a 3.5 mile hike from the Bear Creek Parking Area at the Wild Forest Boundary. Alternatively, with a 4x4 truck or ATV and a dry season, you can drive almost to the shoreline of the Gull Lake on a series of designated truck trails.

Black River Valley
Looking at this 3D rendering of the Black River Valley, I never realized how nearly all the agriculture is on the west side of valley, climbing up into the Tug Hill Plateau. I am most of that has to do with the soils -- the east side is very sandy and infertile with a lot of timber stands. This picture starts around Boonville and heads north of Lowville, the town that rhythms with cow-ville for good reason.
Reeds Pond
Located at the intersection of Farr Road and North Lake Road, this lake is near the Black River, about 10 miles south of South Lake.
