Dundan Pond.
Dundan Pond is a two-acre pocket water in the Keene town boundary — small enough that it rarely appears on recreational lists and remote enough that access details stay mostly word-of-mouth. No fish stocking records on file, which usually means either sterile water or native brookies that nobody bothers reporting. The pond sits in the mid-elevation forest belt typical of the Keene back country: mixed hardwoods, wet margins, and the kind of quiet that comes from being off the standard loop. If you know how to get there, you already know why you're going.
Dundan Pond has public access.
