The lake is the second-largest freshwater lake in the continental United States. The lake is at its lowest since record keeping began in 1932, at 8.96ft deep, 4-5ft below normal.
This drought has uncovered many things in the lake including human bone fragments, pottery, and boats. One of the boats is said to be 50-60 ft long.
