Green Pond (Stillwater Mountain, New York)

Green Pond is a small, remote lake located on Stillwater Mountain in the Adirondack Park of New York State. It is situated in the town of Webb, Herkimer County. The pond is known for its relative isolation and pristine natural environment, characteristic of the Adirondack wilderness.

While accessible, reaching Green Pond typically requires hiking, often involving moderately challenging terrain. This contributes to its relatively low visitation compared to more accessible Adirondack lakes.

The pond's water is generally clear, reflecting the surrounding forest. The shoreline is largely undeveloped, consisting primarily of forest and rocky outcrops. Green Pond is often used for quiet recreational activities such as fishing (species may vary), hiking, and observing wildlife.

Its ecological significance lies in its undisturbed character and its role as habitat for various Adirondack flora and fauna. Maintaining the water quality and natural state of Green Pond is a priority within the Adirondack Park's conservation efforts. Further specific ecological data, water chemistry information, and historical records may be available through the New York State Department of Environmental Conservation (NYSDEC) and local Adirondack Park agencies.
