Every named pond in the Adirondack Park — quiet waters, lean-to destinations, swimming holes. Browse by region or jump to a name.
Eagle Pond is a nine-acre water in the Speculator region — small enough to stay off most through-hiking itineraries, large enough to hold a canoe and a quiet morning. No fish stocking records on file, and no formal trails or lean-tos in the immediate vicinity, which puts it in that category of ponds you find by local knowledge or by studying the quad map for blue ovals near logging roads. The surrounding terrain is gentle by Adirondack standards — second-growth hardwoods, wetland edges, the kind of country where you're more likely to see a heron than a hiker. If you're in Speculator and looking for solitude rather than a destination, this is the type of water to chase down.
