I’ve been following your maps for years, often use them as resources for my trips. Wondering if you had any thoughts on a trail or portage that would link Stillwater Reservoir to the upper Oswegatchie so I take a new it down stream from its highest point down into Inlet? There seems to be a possibility of canoeing up Alder Creek and possibly a trail, but can’t see anything to verify that this is a doable route. I’ve done the Low’s Lake traverse, looking for something different and challenging.

That I don’t know, it’s not been a part of the Adirondacks I’ve explored much.
The Red Horse Trail leads north from Stillwater Reservoir about 1/3 of the way to the Oswegatchie. After that it seems to be a bushwack.
A google search will turn up trip reports of Stillwater to Oswegatchie treks. For example:

Probably a packraft would be the best craft for such a trip.
