56-acre pond near Chatham. NH GRANIT / NH Fish & Game survey water. The lake tops out around 10 ft. The depth chart is built from real state fisheries GPS surveys, so the humps, channels and drop-offs you see are measured, not guessed. Species by species, here's what the data says the year looks like.
Mountain Pond maps at 56 acres behind 1.2 miles of shoreline. The basin is a simple one (shoreline index 1.1) — close to a bowl, so the structure on the chart matters more than the bank. The whole water is littoral — nothing here runs deeper than ~15 ft, so it's all weed-and-bait territory. Tip to tip the water measures near 0.5 mi with a 0.3-mi widest point. It sits in Carroll County. Kimball Pond, Lower sits 6 mi southeast — the closest neighbouring chart.
