Hebgen Lake, Reservoir in Gallatin County, Montana, United States
Hebgen Lake extends across 12,563 acres with a maximum depth of 70 feet, nestled within the mountainous landscape of southwest Montana.
The construction of Hebgen Dam in the early 1900s created this reservoir, which gained additional recognition following the 1959 earthquake that formed nearby Quake Lake.
The lake serves as a meeting point for outdoor enthusiasts who gather for fishing tournaments and recreational activities throughout the seasons.
Rainbow Point Campground provides four separate loops with approximately 20 campsites each, accommodating vehicles and full-size camping equipment.
The lake receives water from multiple tributaries including the South Fork Madison River, Duck Creek, Grayling Creek, Red Canyon Creek, and Watkins Creek.
