39-acre lake in British Columbia. The lake tops out around 24 ft. Depth here is modeled from the true shoreline and max depth rather than surveyed; use it to plan, not to navigate. Species by species, here's what the data says the year looks like.
Traced from the shoreline, Abruzzi Lake runs 39 acres with 1.2 miles of edge. A shoreline index of 1.3 says round and simple: fish relate to depth changes here, not shoreline features. Roughly 74% of the water is 15 ft or less as modeled, the band where the food chain lives.
