Polaris Mountain rises to 2,507 feet in the northern Adirondacks, a trailless peak most often climbed from Long Lake or Tupper Lake approaches. The summit is wooded, offering limited views — a bushwhack for those seeking quiet ridgeline solitude over scenic payoff.
Nearby waters include Lonesome Pond and Cheney Pond.
