The Moose River Plains Wild Forest is part of the 80,000 acre Moose River Plains Complex, a collection of public lands crossed by more than 40 miles of old dirt logging roads. There are 130 miles of marked trails within the complex, as well as more than 100 primitive roadside tent sites, 65 waterbodies, 100 miles of streams, and a fire tower on Wakely Mountain.
The 43,460-acre Sargent Ponds Wild Forest is located in the Central Adirondacks in northern Hamilton County. The majority of the area lies east of Raquette Lake, north of State Route 28, and west of State Route 30.
