Lake Titus.
Lake Titus sits just north of Malone in the northern flatlands — 432 acres of warm-water habitat that feels more St. Lawrence Valley than High Peaks. The lake is accessible and developed enough for motorboats and shoreline camps, but it's off the main tourist circuit and sees mostly local anglers and families putting in from the public launch. No dramatic elevation, no named peaks within sight — this is Adirondack Park at its northern edge, where the landscape opens up and the paddling is wide and calm. The DEC stocks the lake periodically; expect bass, pike, and panfish in a system that fishes more like the Champlain lowlands than the mountain ponds to the south.
Lake Titus reaches a maximum depth of 30 feet, with a mean depth of 16 feet. Lake Titus has public access. Summits nearby include Humbug Mountain and Kary Mountain.
