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 7-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 2022Volunteer monitoring 2012–2022

DNR volunteers monitored this lake for about 10 years, ending in 2022. Its final monitored summers showed hazy water (~4.4 ft Secchi) in 2022, low algae (chlorophyll ~4.5 µg/L) in 2022, and moderate nutrients (phosphorus ~27 µg/L) in 2020. After 4 years without samples, these readings describe the lake as it was, not as it is.

Depth FAQ

How deep is Jordan Pond?

Jordan Pond is 7 feet deep at its deepest point and averages about 4 feet, according to Wisconsin DNR records.

Is there a free depth map of Jordan Pond?

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

Where does the Jordan Pond 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.
