It's the second half of November as the label job I ran today reminds me. 🏷️ The landscape is cold and barren, it's dark out for a good portion of day, and riding home in the dark isn't much fun. But you make the best of it, and I figure the extra sleep and time to learn isn't a bad thing. 🛌 Next adventure after Thanksgiving! 🦃 Hopefully the fire risk is down by then as I want to have a big bonfire in wilderness 🔥 after a good day riding trail or hiking. 🚶

Franklin Falls Pond – Saranac River Campsites

Franklin Falls Pond - Saranac River Campsites

This shows the campsites south-west of the Franklin Falls Pond/Reservoir. The Saranac River at this point is mostly navigable at higher level flows but it is shallow with lots of big boulders and some rapids. You will be hoping in out of your canoe. Most of the campsites can also be accessed by parking on the shoulder of the road and climbing down a steep bank to campsites along the shoreline.

Sprague Pond

Sprague Pond

Located a quarter mile north of Cedar River Road, about half way to Cedar River Flow at Moose River Plains, is the trail head for Sprague Pond. It's a short hike a quarter mile north of the road, along it's outlet creek to a modestly sized, swampy pond. Campsites along the pond are very informal, and lightly used.
