Piseco-Powley Road

Stretching from Stratford to Piseco, Piseco-Powley Road winds along the western edge of one of the last remaining old Adirondack dirt roads. Lined with venerable spruce trees, some nearly brushing against the road, it offers a glimpse of nature’s untouched beauty. The tranquil West Branch of the East Canada Creek intersects Powley Road at Powley Place. This spot is positioned 8 miles southwest of Piseco Outlet, where NY 10 crosses, and approximately 7.5 miles from the point Piseco-Powley Road branches off from NY 10. When approached from the south, Powley Place is found 10.5 miles northeast from Stratford via Piseco Road. Notably, this area hosts four campsites, forming part of the 22 designated camping spots along Piseco-Powley Road, enhancing the allure of this picturesque route.

Even on a sunny day like Sunday it was hard to generate much solar power with the low sun angle.

Piseco-Powley Road Mile Points

|

This interactive map shows the location of each mile point heading north up Piseco-Powley Road from Stratford in the Adirondacks. It's handy if you trying to locate a trail head or just want to know about how far roughly north things are along the road.

For example, I had no idea that the Lower Powley Bridge is 6 miles north of Stratford -- it always seems like a bit of a trip up that rough road, but it's good to keep in context. Powley Place is 11 miles north, and ultimately the road ends at NY 8 at 18.6 miles further north.
