UCLN participating groups:

We are actively recruiting volunteers and watershed groups to monitor additional lakes in the Upper Columbia Watershed in Montana. If you are interested in learning more, contact Cynthia Ingelfinger at cynthia@whitefishlake.org. 

Secchi disks help measure water clarity which is among the most important parameters that can be monitored for lake health trends.
Dickey Lake shows off its colors from the boat launch where plankton tow samples are collected.
Lakes in Montana’s Upper Columbia Watershed range in size, recreation pressure and risk of AIS infestion but even small remote lakes like Fish Lake are at risk of AIS infestation.
