Triangle Pond.
Triangle Pond is a 15-acre pond in the Tupper Lake region — small enough that it lives in the margin between named water and local-knowledge spot. No fish stocking records on file, no marked trails in the state database, no lean-tos or designated campsites in the immediate vicinity. These quiet ponds often hold native brook trout or yellow perch that never make it into DEC survey reports, and they're often reached by old logging roads or hunter's paths that predate the trail register system. Worth a stop if you're already in the area with a topo map and a canoe; otherwise, it's a placeholder on the larger water network until someone with recent intel files a trip report.
Triangle Pond reaches a maximum depth of 17 feet, with a mean depth of 9 feet. Triangle Pond has public access. Summits nearby include Long Tom Mountain and Silver Lake Mountain.
