Lake Mirror, an egg shaped lake has a surface area of 131-acre (530,000 m 2). Lake Mirror is in a highly urbanized area. Other than on its northeast shore, it is surrounded by residences. On the northeast it is bordered by a woody area. about 200 feet (61 m) to its east is Spring Lake and about 250 feet (76 m) to its west is Lake Cannon. [1] [2]

Lake Superior's deepest point [4] on the bathymetric map. [1] Lake Superior has a surface area of 31,700 square miles (82,103 km 2), [7] which is approximately the size of South Carolina or Austria. It has a maximum length of 350 statute miles (560 km; 300 nmi) and maximum breadth of 160 statute miles (257 km; 139 nmi). [8]
Lake stratification is the tendency of lakes to form separate and distinct thermal layers during warm weather. Typically stratified lakes show three distinct layers: the epilimnion, comprising the top warm layer; the thermocline (or metalimnion), the middle layer, whose depth may change throughout the day; and the colder hypolimnion, extending to the floor of the lake.
The lake's maximum depth has been measured at 1,949 feet (594 m), [3] [6] [15] [16] which fluctuates slightly as the weather changes. [3] On the basis of maximum depth, Crater Lake is the deepest lake in the United States, the second-deepest in North America (after Great Slave Lake in Canada), and the eleventh-deepest lake in the world.
