This bathymetric map shows contour lines of equal depth, similar to a topographic map would for mountains and valleys
This map shows the area of the watershed relative to the area of the lake. Generally speaking, the larger a watershed is relative to a lake, the greater the influence land use practices on lake water quality

Water Quality Data
No data in the past 5 years for this lake.
Through a combination of efforts by volunteer lake monitors and King County staff,
data relating to physical, chemical, and biological aspects of the lake have been
collected for most lakes. The King County Lake Stewardship Program analyzes data
to track long-term water quality trends in small lakes in western King County.
View or Download Data Use this tool to view or download data from the lake in tabular format. You can
define date ranges and select which parameters to view or download. Chart Data Use the charting tool to look at graphs showing single parameters for a single
water year at a time. Five year water quality trends
A common method of tracking water quality trends in lakes is by calculating
the “trophic state index” (TSI) (Carlson, 1977). TSI indicators predict the biological
productivity of the lake based on water clarity (Secchi) and concentrations of total
phosphorus (TP) and chlorophyll a (Chlor).
The average of these three TSI indicators during the growing season can be used
to place lakes in one of three broad categories:
