On Lake Champlain

Lake Champlain is a large natural freshwater lake lying mostly between Vermont and New York and extending north into Quebec. It is 107 miles long and up to 14 miles wide, covers about 514 square miles, averages 64 feet deep and reaches a maximum depth of 400 feet, with 587 miles of shoreline. Burlington, Vermont, and Plattsburgh, New York, are the largest settlements on the lake. Its roughly 80 islands include Grand Isle, North Hero and Isle La Motte, all in Grand Isle County, Vermont. Inflows include Otter Creek and the Winooski, Missisquoi, Lamoille and Poultney rivers. The lake drains north through the Richelieu River to the St. Lawrence and connects to the Hudson River by the Champlain Canal. More about Lake Champlain.
