Ferris Lake
Ferris Lake, despite being the name sake of this region, is actually one of the more challenging lakes to get back to. Not due to the terrain as much as the lake is surrounded by small streams and wetlands, and the best access to the lake is posted via the old road. The DEC has said they will eventually build a trail out to this lake in the Unit Management Plan, which has yet to be approved.
