Blind Pond is a 19-acre water in the Tupper Lake township — small enough to slip past notice, remote enough that access details don't circulate widely, and unnamed on most recreational maps despite holding a place name in the DEC inventory. No fish survey data on record, which typically means either the pond doesn't hold fish naturally or it hasn't drawn enough angling pressure to warrant sampling. The name suggests either visual obscurity from surrounding terrain or historical logging-era usage — "blind" ponds often sat tucked behind ridgelines or timber operations. Worth noting only if you're cataloging every named water in the Park or hunting for genuine solitude within snowshoe range of Tupper Lake.
