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.

Sitting in the campsite, looking at the rain pounding down in the puddles by the campsite. Saturday really was a dreary day, good for drinking beer and reading books mostly.

Trees in Powley Place

A lot of Powley Place is not marsh, but actually grasses, as a farmer once tried to farm these lands, and their is probably an agricultural tiling system in ground here, to keep this area dry year round.
