Wolf Pond.
Wolf Pond is a 37-acre water in the Tupper Lake region — one of dozens of mid-sized ponds in the northwestern working forest where access details shift with logging roads and posted boundaries. No public fish stocking records on file, which usually means either brook trout that wandered in decades ago or a pond that winters too shallow for reliable carryover. The name suggests old trapping routes or timber-camp geography; Wolf ponds and Wolf brooks scatter across every township in the Park, most named before 1900. If you're planning a trip, contact the local DEC office in Ray Brook for current access status and landowner agreements.
