Mount Kelsey is a mountain located in the western portion of Millsfield, New Hampshire. The western slopes of the mountain are contained within Erving's Location, New Hampshire, the township that (according to the Census) has a population of 1, although that fact is disputed. A dirt road (the only road that leads to Erving's Location) is located to the north of Mount Kelsey. There are no trails to the top of Mount Kelsey, although North Inlet Stream does go almost to the summit.
There is also logging road access from the Phillips Brook area.
The north side of Mount Kelsey drains into the West Branch of Clear Stream, a tributary of the Androscoggin River, which flows south and east into Maine, joining the Kennebec River near the Atlantic Ocean. The southeast side of Kelsey drains into North Inlet Stream, thence into Millsfield Pond Brook, and into Clear Stream. The west side of Kelsey drains into Phillips Brook, thence into the Upper Ammonoosuc River, the upper Connecticut River, and into Long Island Sound in Connecticut.
