Inman Pond is a 13-acre water tucked into the eastern Lake George Wild Forest — small enough to feel like a find, large enough to paddle without running out of shoreline in twenty minutes. No public launch or marked trailhead appears on DEC maps, which typically means either old logging roads or bushwhacking from nearby forest access points; it's the kind of pond that shows up on USGS quads but not in the casual conversation at the Bolton boat launch. The Lake George Wild Forest holds dozens of these unmapped ponds — some accessible, some not, most quiet. Worth a map check and a scout if you're already working the woods south of Brant Lake or the Pharaoh Lake Wilderness boundary.
