A Monday morning photo quiz for you. See if you can identify this lake in Douglas County. The aerial photo was taken and provided by Vern Whitten Photography of Fargo, North Dakota. If you are interested in aerial photos of our lakes you can find Vern’s work at a few stores in Alexandria or you can buy directly from him. A few years ago I bought fifteen and had them framed for display at my office. People love looking them.
Use the comment feature below to take a guess. A clue, albeit a small one, is that it is one of the lakes listed on the ‘Lake Homes‘ page of this site. Another small clue is that the maximum depth of the lake is 40 feet and the last DNR survey reported water clarity of 8.8 feet.
A clue, it is located south of Alexandria.
Mill Lake
Correct!
