Coffee Pond is a three-acre pocket water in the Schroon Lake region — small enough that it likely sees more moose than paddlers, and remote enough that it doesn't show up on most recreation maps. No fish data on record, which usually means either wild brook trout that no one's bothered to survey or a shallow basin that winterkills. The name suggests an old logging camp or a trapper's nickname; ponds this size in the central Adirondacks tend to be remnants of 19th-century backcountry geography that never made it into the hiking-guide economy. Worth investigating if you're already in the area with a topo map and a willingness to bushwhack.
