Lewis and Clark Lake, Reservoir on Missouri River between South Dakota and Nebraska, United States.
Lewis and Clark Lake extends over 31,400 acres with 90 miles of shoreline and reaches depths of 45 feet at its deepest points.
The U.S. Army Corps of Engineers created this reservoir in 1957 following the construction of Gavins Point Dam across the Missouri River valley.
The Lewis and Clark Visitor Center atop Calumet Bluff presents exhibits about Missouri River Basin history and regional wildlife populations.
The recreation area contains 418 campsites, 19 camping cabins, multiple boat ramps, swimming beaches, and extensive hiking trails for outdoor activities.
The reservoir loses approximately 5.1 million tons of water storage capacity annually due to sediment deposits flowing primarily from Nebraska sand dunes.
