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.

Camp at Powley Bridge

This past weekend, the third week of September I camped up by Powley Bridge on Piseco-Powley Road.

While I didn't camp this past weekend at Powley Bridge, this is one of my favorite campsites and favorite areas in the entire Adirondacks. Framed by old growth spruce trees, and crossed by the East Canada Creek this area is beautiful.
