Beaver Pond.
Beaver Pond is a 20-acre pond in the Tupper Lake region — one of dozens of small waters in the area that share the name, a reminder that beaver engineering shaped more of this landscape than the logging era that followed. Without fish stocking records or nearby trail infrastructure in the directory, this is likely a put-in-and-paddle destination: check topographic maps for forest road access and expect shallow water, stumps, and active beaver work at the inlet. The Tupper Lake wild forest holds enough unnamed ponds and beaver flows to keep a canoe explorer busy for seasons. Bring a compass and a DeLorme.
Beaver Pond reaches a maximum depth of 6 feet, with a mean depth of 3 feet. Beaver Pond has public access. Summits nearby include Cary Hill and Potter Mountain.
