Four Ponds Public Land Details
Four Ponds Public Land totals 6,000 acres and is best known for the portion of the Appalachian Trail running through it, skirting the ponds.

Located not far from here is the Mooselookmeguntic Lake. Urban legend jokes about the poor hunting of moose, though the actual name origin comes from the Abnaki language and means "moose feeding place."
