Every named pond in the Adirondack Park — quiet waters, lean-to destinations, swimming holes. Browse by region or jump to a name.
Third Pond sits north of Long Lake village — 36 acres with no formal access or maintained trail, which in the central Adirondacks usually means it's either private-bordered or approached by bushwhack. The name suggests it's part of a numbered chain (First, Second, Third), a naming pattern common in working-forest and old logging territory where ponds were mapped but not always settled. No fish stocking records and no DEC lean-tos tied to it in the database. If you know the pond, you likely know it through a camp lease or a local put-in — this one doesn't show up on the tourist trail.
