Shaw J. 2023. Factors Affecting Water Levels in Little Traverse Lake. National Park Service. Fort Collins, CO

Periodic flooding along the shores of Little Traverse Lake (LTL) has focused attention on the factors affecting lake water levels and possible remedies for high water. This report integrates existing information to provide an independent and holistic technical perspective on the factors affecting water levels in LTL. It synthesizes available information on hydrologic conditions in LTL and Shalda Creek, including the physical and biological factors affecting them. Existing water level data were also quantitatively analyzed to determine the effects of beaver dams on water levels in LTL.
