9-acre lake in Sweden. The lake tops out around 18 ft. Depth here is modeled from the true shoreline and max depth rather than surveyed; use it to plan, not to navigate. The season-by-season read for each species follows, from the map's own numbers.
The drawn water covers 9 acres wrapped in 0.7 miles of bank. A middling shoreline index (1.8) gives it some bays to work without being a maze. Roughly 92% of the water is 15 ft or less as modeled, the band where the food chain lives.
