Why it works

The Oswegatchie River canoe route through the Five Ponds Wilderness is one of the most remote and classic wilderness paddling trips in the Adirondacks, requiring detailed river and portage mapping for multi-day trips deep into the wilderness interior. The Fulton Chain of Lakes provides accessible paddling and camping for less experienced visitors. Waterproof construction survives the Adirondacks' frequent rain and the lake and river environment.

Ideal for

Paddlers, backpackers, and Adirondack wilderness lovers exploring the Old Forge area, Five Ponds Wilderness, and Oswegatchie River canoe route. See also NGTI744 (Northville & Raquette Lake) for adjacent coverage to the east.
