Shingle Pond is a 4-acre pocket water in the Tupper Lake region — small enough that it likely sees minimal pressure and may not hold a robust fishery, though brookies have a way of showing up in Adirondack ponds this size if the inlet and depth are right. No formal species records on file, which usually means either private access or simply that no one's reporting catches. The name suggests old logging history — shingle mills were common in this part of the park through the early 1900s — but without a documented public trailhead, this one stays off most paddlers' lists. Worth a local inquiry if you're poking around the Tupper backcountry.
