Cedar River (New York)

From Wikipedia, the free encyclopedia

The Cedar River is a 27-mile long river in the central Adirondacks, in the town of Lake Pleasant near the hamlet of Indian Lake in Hamilton County, New York. It flows northeast, from the Cedar Lakes, through the Cedar River Flow, to join the Hudson River northeast of the hamlet of Indian Lake. The Northville-Placid Trail goes past the Cedar Lakes and along the Cedar River to the Flow.

The Cedar River Flow is a remote 640-acre shallow lake, created by the Wakely Dam, where there are a number of campsites accessible via a gravel road, 14 miles from Indian Lake or 23 miles from Inlet. More campsites are accessible via canoe, around the Flow. It lies on the border between the Moose River Plains Wild Forest and the West Canada Lake Wilderness Area.
