15-acre lake near Lander Region. The lake tops out around 63 ft. The depth picture is modeled, anchored to the true shoreline and the water's published max depth — a scouting aid, never a chart to run a boat by. Here's the year, species by species, as the scoring engine sees it.
On the chart, Glacier Lake draws 14 acres inside 0.7 miles of shoreline. Its 1.3 shoreline index means few bank features; the contours below do the pattern work. The shallow band under 15 ft claims about 14% of the surface on the model — that's where the groceries are. Figure 0.3 mi of water from one end to the other. You'll find it in Fremont County. The nearest mapped water is Phyllis Lake, 1 mi to the east.
In spring, brook trout run shallow here, mostly 2 to 15 ft. Summer pushes them deeper, 10 to 30 ft, and winter fish settle into 3 to 20 ft. Break off the point is the standout, a drop-off at roughly 28 ft, rated prime for summer brook trout. Time it for early morning and the evening. You won't need more than a small spoon fished deep or a trolled lake-clear wobbler + worm most summer days.
