Conglin Lakes is a 4-acre pond in the Great Sacandaga Lake region — small enough that it likely escaped formal DEC fisheries surveys, and remote enough that it doesn't appear on most recreational radar. The name suggests historical settlement or logging-era geography, common in the southern Adirondacks where parcels were often named for families or operations rather than natural features. Without road access or established trails leading in, this is the kind of water that exists more as a cartographic footnote than a destination — worth knowing about if you're bushwhacking the area or studying old property maps, but not a place you'll find trip reports or a designated put-in.
Cummings Pond is a 30-acre pocket water in the Great Sacandaga Lake region — low-elevation, accessible country outside the Blue Line's dense core. No fish species data on file, which usually means it's either never been stocked or the surveys are decades old; worth a call to the regional DEC office if you're planning to wet a line. The Great Sacandaga corridor runs more to motorboats and summer camps than backwoods solitude, so Cummings likely sits in mixed-use territory — old logging roads, seasonal camps, and the kind of access that requires asking around locally. If you're planning a trip, confirm access and current conditions before you load the canoe.
