New Pond Brook is a minor tributary in the Keene area — one of dozens of small feeder streams that drain the northern High Peaks region and eventually work their way into the East Branch of the Ausable River. The name suggests a pond or beaver meadow somewhere upstream, but records are thin and access is undefined; this is likely a woods brook known more to bushwhackers and old-timers than to anyone following marked trails. No fish data on file, no formal trailhead, no reason to visit unless you're chasing a map name or piecing together a drainage pattern. If you're looking for named water in Keene with an actual destination, stick to the Ausable itself or one of the documented ponds.
