Upper Bartlett Pond is a one-acre pocket water in the Lake Placid township — small enough that it's functionally off the recreational radar, with no fish stocking records and no maintained trail access in the DEC inventory. These micro-ponds typically serve as headwater feeders or wetland buffers rather than destinations, and Upper Bartlett fits that profile: it's the kind of water you'd only encounter if you were bushwhacking between larger systems or studying wetland hydrology on a quad map. No camping infrastructure, no angler pressure, no reason to visit unless you're a completist or a drainage nerd. If there's a Lower Bartlett, it's not showing up in the state's named-water records either.
