Here’s some interesting facts:
Flathead Lake, located in the western United States, holds the distinction of being the largest natural freshwater lake (in terms of surface area) outside of Alaska. Globally, it ranks as the 79th largest natural freshwater lake and is recognized as one of the cleanest.
The area surrounding the lake is rich in public lands, including a National Wildlife Refuge on the North Shore. Additionally, Montana Fish Wildlife and Parks manage six State Parks, and nine Fishing Accesses are under the care of FWP or the Confederated Salish and Kootenai Tribes.
Among the State Parks, Wildhorse Island stands out. It is the largest island in the lake, covering an area of 2,100 acres, and it towers 1,200 feet above the lake.
Fascinating, isn’t it?
