While you're here at Upper Pond you can play some golf at Inlet Golf Club, and whitewater paddling is not for everyone but if it's for you then, we recommend Moose River - South Branch. This lake is so wonderful. Cascade Mountain can be

This lake is so wonderful. Get your pulse rate up on the perfect whitewater of Indian River. All the outdoors amusing things in the Adirondack Mountains will keep you coming back repeatedly. Skiing at McCauley Mountain is one of those things you just ought to do; there is a tremendous hiking trail close by called the Big Deer Pond Trail. So many cool things to do at Upper Pond, so little time. Going for a hike on the Salmon Lake Trail is always a tremendous adventure, of course you could also stop at Browns Tract Pond since you're here; it's not far at all.
All the water falling down from the sky makes Upper Pond a wet spot; the month with most of the rain is August while February is frequently the driest month.

Raquette Lake
It's just Raquette Lake, NOT Raquette Lake Reservoir! And Fort Stanwix is over 80 miles away - why not visit the Adirondack Museum just a 12 mile drive to Blue Mountain Lake?...

Helldiver Pond

Hell Diver Pond is a pretty little body of water located in the Moose River Recreation Area of the Adirondacks. The hike back to it is easy and short. Hell Diver is well worth the walk....

Terror Lake
...in the ridges above Terror Lake. Almost died. They found the lake and named it after their nights of terror. Guys used to hunt there in the fly in days. The last last guy to go there was a drainage ditch runner. Calls himself PH. Take his advice. It's a long way in and you MUST know the woods and be a woodsman. There are plenty of blow downs to go through overland. The way to go is via the end of Twitchell Lk. The Sisters who own the old Teahouse at the end of Twitchell are nice old girls. I saved their nephew one cold November night. They bought me some good whiskey. Anyway that's the way to get into Terror Lk. Follow the old trail into the South Branch Beaver River drainage. Head northeast for a good mile and keep the high ground to your right shoulder. Keep walking about 4 miles and make sure the big ridge is over your right shoulder. You can't miss the lake. There is an old ghost trail marked with blue soap can lids at the base of the ridge. Probably grown in by now. Don't need trails anyway. Use your Map & Compass. Don't do this trip with the foliage on. Lots of thick blow downs...

85 years ago my mother who lived in Brooklyn spent her vacations at Lake Twitchell,she said once she went to the adirondacks she never went back to the catskills. I got up this morning and thought of her conversations about the lake and decided to look it up, I hope it's still as beautiful as she described it so many years ago,I still have her snap shots....
