(Kalispell) – Montana Fish, Wildlife, and Parks is advising boaters that the water levels in Whitefish Lake are dropping and the public ramps at Whitefish City Beach and Whitefish Lake State Park are approaching levels that are too shallow to launch or take out large boats.
All boaters are advised to take precaution when launching or taking out in low-water conditions at public ramps across the region. Landowners with large boats docked on Whitefish Lake should monitor lake levels and consider taking out boats due to dropping lake levels.
This drop in water levels is due to severe drought conditions, earlier than normal spring runoffs, and above average hot, dry summertime weather.
