Tally Lake is a freshwater lake located in Flathead County, Montana in the northwestern region of the United States. The lake is about 20 miles west of the town of Whitefish. It is a popular lake for recreational activities including fishing, boating, swimming and cliff jumping, and hiking on the surrounding trails, and is notable for its great depth and unusual geology. The lake's surface area is over 1200 acres. The lake is located at roughly 3,500 feet above sea level. It is about 445 feet deep at its deepest point, making it the deepest lake in Montana and the deepest natural lake. Despite its large volume, the lake tends to be warm in late summer because its waters are darkly colored due to high levels of tannins. These cause the lake to absorb and retain more heat than comparatively clearer bodies of water in the region.
