Did You Know... |
|
Deering Lake is about 315 acres and a little over a mile long
from one end to the other. The average depth is about 12 feet
with the deepest part of the lake running at about 35 feet in
the southwest corner. Deering Lake is home to at least one pair
of nesting loons each year. The lake has both small and large
mouth bass as well as trout and pickerel. As for other wildlife,
the lake has a least one large turtle - this guy is huge! Blue
herons and cranes also visit the lake each year. Hawks, owls,
and even the occasional eagle are also regularly seen. If you spot a cyanobacteria bloom (blue-green algae) or scum, avoid swimming or wading in the water, do not dring the water, keep pets and livestock out of the water and call NHDES at 603-271-3414 or 603-419-9229. |
