About Jenness Pond
Jenness Pond sits a short drive from Concord, New Hampshire, one of many small ponds left behind after the glaciers retreated from this part of the state thousands of years ago. At roughly 242 acres with about three miles of shoreline, it is small enough to cross by canoe in under an hour but deep enough, at close to 53 feet at its lowest point, to hold cold water well into summer.
The pond draws the kind of traffic typical of small New Hampshire waters: anglers working the drop-offs near its deepest sections, families in cottages along the shore, and paddlers who prefer a pond this size over the larger lakes nearby. Its modest surface area and irregular, three-mile shoreline give it more edge relative to its size than a perfectly round pond of the same acreage, creating coves and points that break up the water into smaller, quieter sections.

Jenness Pond depth chart, in wood
This is a Jenness Pond depth chart you can hang: 6 stacked layers of birch, each one a depth contour — 9 ft, 18 ft, 26 ft, 35 ft, 44 ft and deeper, down to the deepest hole at about 53 ft. The lake covers about 0.4 square miles. The shape of the bottom is the real one from published soundings, so anglers recognise their drop-offs and points.
A Jenness Pond map for the wall — or a gift
Most of these go to a cabin wall, a lake house entry, or a home office; a lot are gifts — the family that has been on Jenness Pond for three generations, the retirement move, the first boat. The 12-inch is the desk-and-shelf size; the 24- and 30-inch boards read across a room. Add a line under the title and star your place on the shore, and it becomes the map of your Jenness Pond.
Jenness Pond map — the details
How big is the map?
Four sizes: 12, 17, 24 and 30 inches on the long side, from $149. Every size is cut from the same depth data of Jenness Pond; the bigger boards carry more shoreline roads and place names.
Is it made from real depth data?
Yes. Jenness Pond is cut layer by layer from published bathymetric soundings — each layer of birch is a depth contour, so the shape of the bottom is the real one, not decorative.
Can I add my own place on it?
Yes. At checkout you can add a line under the title (a family name, a cabin name, a year) and star the spot on the shore that matters to you.
How long does it take?
Made to order in Waterford, Pennsylvania and shipped in 7–10 days; shipping is free in the lower 48.
Can you make a lake that isn't listed?
Any lake in the United States — we hold depth data for 104,419 of them. Search for yours; if it isn't built yet we build it when you order.
