Lost Pond lives up to its name — two acres tucked somewhere in the Tupper Lake township with no fish surveys on file and no formal trail record in the DEC inventory. It's the kind of water that shows up on a USGS quad but not in any paddling guide, likely landlocked by private timber company holdings or accessible only via bushwhack and local knowledge. Without stocking records or angler reports, it's either too shallow to hold trout year-round or simply too far off the grid to draw attention. If you know where it is, you probably already know whether it's worth the walk.
