Outline

Water clarity
10.7 ft Secchi depthClearOlder reading
Last measured Jul 18, 2001. 9 readings on record, 1988 to 2001.
Nothing has been measured in the last 5 years, so this may not match the lake today.
Secchi depth is how far down a white disk stays visible. A bigger number means clearer water. Clear means a Secchi depth of 10 feet or more, moderate 5 to 10 feet, low under 5 feet.
