Goose Pond sits in the Paradox Lake region — a 64-acre pond in a quietly forested pocket east of Schroon Lake, where the tourist traffic thins and the ponds tend toward private shoreline and camp leases. No fish species on record, which usually signals either marginal habitat or simply that DEC hasn't surveyed it in decades. The pond carries the kind of name — Goose, Mud, Long — that marks working-camp waters rather than destination fishing, and access here is almost certainly limited to landowner permission or a paddle-in from a connecting water. Worth a look on the DeLorme if you're poking around the Paradox drainage, but don't expect a trailhead.
