Accessible only by paddle and closed to motorized craft, this 1,409-acre backcountry lake lies deep within the wilderness near Tupper Lake, its waters reaching a reported maximum depth of 60 feet. The remote setting and paddle-in access mark it as an advanced destination, one that rewards the effort with opportunities for native brook trout and lake trout in relatively undisturbed conditions. Current NYSDEC regulations apply, and those planning primitive camping should confirm whether a permit is required.
