Line Pond.
Line Pond is a four-acre pocket water in the Tupper Lake township — small enough that it reads more like a widening in a drainage than a named destination, but it carries a surveyor's name and a spot on the map. No fish stocking records, no established trails, no DEC campsites — the kind of water that stays quiet because it offers little beyond the fact of itself. It's likely logging-access or bushwhack territory, and almost certainly better known to the landowner than to the paddling public. If you're hunting for it, confirm access and ownership before you go.
Line Pond reaches a maximum depth of 12 feet, with a mean depth of 5 feet. Line Pond has public access. Summits nearby include Buck Mountain.
