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 68-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.

DNR water check

Water quality quick take

Historical volunteer-monitoring record for this lake.

Last sampled Oct 1999Volunteer monitoring 1995–1999

DNR volunteers monitored this lake for about 4 years, ending in 1999. In 1999 the water showed crystal clear water (~17.7 ft Secchi), very low algae (chlorophyll ~0.5 µg/L), and very low nutrients (phosphorus ~6 µg/L). After 27 years without samples, these readings describe the lake as it was, not as it is.

The DNR station record reports activity through 2018, but LakeList holds no readings after 1999 — check the station reports for anything newer.

Depth FAQ

How deep is Lac du Lune?

Lac du Lune is 68 feet deep at its deepest point and averages about 24 feet, according to Wisconsin DNR records.

Is there a free depth map of Lac du Lune?

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

Where does the Lac du Lune 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.
