27-acre lake near Bowdoin College Grant West Twp. The lake tops out around 20 ft. The depth chart comes from published agency bathymetric survey data, so the contours are survey-derived rather than computer-modeled. Species by species, here's what the data says the year looks like.
The outline encloses 27 acres, worked by 1 miles of shoreline. At index 1.4 the outline is almost a bowl — read the depth changes, not the shoreline. Littoral water — the productive band under ~15 ft — makes up 82% of this chart. Figure 0.3 mi of water from one end to the other, 0.2 mi at the beam. Piscataquis County claims this one. Mountain Pond sits 1 mi northeast — the closest neighbouring chart.
