Interactive depth contours5-foot typical interval · Modeled depth estimate · Not a survey · Not for navigation
Source: LakeList depth modelmedium confidence · QA passed · Select a contour to inspect its mapped depthModeled depth estimate: contours computed from the lake's shoreline shape and its documented 29-ft maximum depth (depth grows with distance from shore, calibrated to the documented mean depth where available). This is a smooth mathematical model, not a survey - real holes, bars, and drop-offs will differ. Community sonar (C-MAP Genesis) overlays where recorded. Not for navigation.

Historical volunteer-monitoring record for this lake.

Last sampled Aug 2015Volunteer monitoring 2002–2015

DNR volunteers monitored this lake for about 13 years, ending in 2015. Its final monitored summers showed slight haze water (~6.2 ft Secchi) in 2010, very low algae (chlorophyll ~2.3 µg/L) in 2014, and moderate nutrients (phosphorus ~21 µg/L) in 2012. After 11 years without samples, these readings describe the lake as it was, not as it is.

Depth FAQ

How deep is Summit Lake?

Summit Lake is 29 feet deep at its deepest point, according to Wisconsin DNR records.

Is there a free depth map of Summit Lake?

Yes. LakeList publishes a free interactive depth contour map of Summit Lake at a typical 5-foot interval, with an optional 3D underwater view, derived from LakeList depth model survey data.

Where does the Summit Lake depth map come from?

The interactive depth contours are derived from LakeList depth model. Each contour set passes a visual QA review against the source document before it is published. The depths are a modeled estimate calibrated to the lake's documented maximum depth - not a survey, and not for navigation.
