Snapshots of Indiana Lakes & Reservoirs

Lakes and reservoirs included in this assessment started and ended the water year at roughly the same water levels. Lake Maxinkuckee [4] and Pike Lake [5] reached peak levels in February. Heron Lake [3] peaked at the start of May, while the Eagle Creek Reservoir [1] peaked first in late March, and again in June. Lake levels dropped from May through September except for Eagle Creek Reservoir, which maintained high water levels through mid-September.

NOTE: Reservoir and lake water levels supplied by the USGS do not include long-term median levels so no comparison statistics are available.
