Number Nine Pond is a 12-acre pocket of water in the Lake George wild forest — small enough to miss on a map, quiet enough to feel like you earned it. The name comes from the old Great Lot survey system that carved up this stretch of Washington County in the 18th century; you'll find Number Ten Pond and Number Eleven Pond on the same grid to the east. No DEC fish stocking records on file, which usually means native brookies or nothing — worth a cast if you're already back here. Access details are scarce in the public record, but ponds this size in this region typically mean bushwhacking or unmaintained trails off old logging roads.
