Historical volunteer-monitoring record for this lake.

Last sampled Jun 2014Volunteer monitoring 1973–2014

DNR volunteers monitored this lake for about 41 years, ending in 2014. Its final monitored summers showed slight haze water (~7.9 ft Secchi) in 2012, low algae (chlorophyll ~3 µg/L) in 2000, and low nutrients (phosphorus ~16.3 µg/L) in 2012. After 12 years without samples, these readings describe the lake as it was, not as it is.

Where does the Mayflower Lake depth map come from?

The interactive depth contours are derived from C-MAP Genesis community sonar (derived). Each contour set passes a visual QA review against the source document before it is published. The depths are derived from community sonar recordings (C-MAP Genesis Social Map, used with permission), with gaps between recordings interpolated; not for navigation.
