Facts about Cayuga Lake...

The longest of the Finger Lakes and second largest in area, Cayuga Lake is also the closest to sea level. It's waters are regulated by Mud Lock at the northern end, which helps prevent flooding and costal ice damage. Although the majority of the lake is too deep to freeze over in winter, the southern end is much shallower and will often get a coat of ice.

The northern tip is capped by vast marshland, the majority of which is designated as the Montezuma National Wildlife Refuge, an ecologically important wetland for water quality and bird migration. This wetland area serves as both a natural water filter and an important breeding ground for waterfowl.  Despite this important natural area, the Northern end has a long history of public works projects. Locks, railways, highways and canals are all adjacent to this northern tip and contribute greatly to water quality and ascetic concerns.
