Wilson Pond

Wilson Pond is a nine-acre pocket water in the Blue Mountain Lake township — small enough that most paddlers wouldn't think to seek it out, which is exactly its appeal. No formal DEC access or fish stocking records on file, so this is either private, gated, or reachable only by local knowledge and a willingness to bushwhack. The Blue Mountain Lake area has dozens of these unmapped or under-documented ponds tucked into the woods between the bigger named waters; Wilson is one of them. If you know how to reach it, you're likely the only boat on the water.
