"A lake is the landscape's most beautiful and expressive feature.
It is earth's eye; looking into which the beholder measures
the depth of his own nature."
- Henry David Thoreau
The Whitefish Lake Institute (WLI) was founded in 2005 to provide scientific research and community education about the natural resources of the Whitefish,
Montana area lakes.
In total, data collected by the WLI will provide more sophisticated information on the biological, chemical, physical and social
variables of the area lakes. Management efforts can then go forth with a definitive mandate from both science and the community.
