Gate at Mallet Pond ...
There is a gate 1/2 mile from Mallet Pond. Normally I don't like gates and keeping the public from driving down to their lands, but Mallet Pond is kind of nice being so remote for camping, fishing, or wild life observation. Rossman Pond, which you can drive right up to, has no such gate.

Some decent sized trout have been taken from this small pond. The pond is stocked annually with approximately 250 brown trout and 250 rainbow trout from 8-10" in length. Parking area at gated road off Rosseman Fly Road. Roughly a 0.3 mile walk from parking area to pond.
