What this local map set contains

The Haliburton County directory currently covers 295 lakes or reservoirs. 230 charts use measured bathymetry from a published source; 65 charts are clearly labeled as modeled. Recorded maximum depths range from 5 to 280 ft, with a median of 50 ft. Those figures describe each chart's deepest recorded or modeled point, not a safe navigation depth.

Species records are attached to 295 of 295 waters. The most frequently cataloged targets are Yellow Perch (175), Smallmouth Bass (169), Pumpkinseed (155), Lake Trout (110) and Brown Bullhead (102). These are coverage counts, not abundance estimates or catch forecasts; open the individual map to see the evidence and seasonal context attached to that water.

Three useful maps to compare first

  1. Gull Lake: 160 ft maximum; survey-backed contours; 15 cataloged target species.
  2. Kashagawigamog Lake: 130 ft maximum; survey-backed contours; 13 cataloged target species.
  3. Twelve Mile Lake: 90 ft maximum; survey-backed contours; 13 cataloged target species.

Start with a survey-backed chart when exact contour shape matters most. Use a modeled chart as broad planning context, then verify depths on the water. Comparing the three examples above also shows whether this area offers one dominant basin type or genuinely different shallow, deep, lake and river options. Access is separate from map coverage: confirm launches, shore rights, closures and posted rules before making the trip.
