Waterton Lake is a mountain lake in southern Alberta, Canada and northern Montana, United States. The lake is composed of two bodies of water, connected by a shallow channel known locally as the Bosporus. The two parts are referred to as Middle Waterton Lake, and Upper Waterton Lake, the latter of which is divided by the Canada–United States border with Canada containing about two thirds of the lake while the Southern third falls in the United States. The Boundary Commission Trail ends at the lake as the last border marker was placed there on 8 August 1874. The United States Geological Survey gives the geocoordinates of 49°03′00″N 113°54′03″W / 49.05000°N 113.90083°W for Upper Waterton Lake.

  • Waterton Lake is a mountain lake in southern Alberta, Canada and northern Montana, United States. The lake is composed of two bodies of water, connected by a shallow channel known locally as the Bosporus. The two parts are referred to as Middle Waterton Lake, and Upper Waterton Lake, the latter of which is divided by the Canada–United States border with Canada containing about two thirds of the lake while the Southern third falls in the United States. The Boundary Commission Trail ends at the lake as the last border marker was placed there on 8 August 1874. The United States Geological Survey gives the geocoordinates of 49°03′00″N 113°54′03″W / 49.05000°N 113.90083°W for Upper Waterton Lake. Lower Waterton Lake is north of Middle Waterton Lake and is separated by a channel known as the Dardanelles. The northern, lower end of the main lake lies in Waterton Lakes National Park while the upper, southern part of the lake is located in Glacier National Park. In 1979, UNESCO established the Waterton Biosphere Reserve to protect the diverse habitats including prairie grasslands, aspen parkland, subalpine forests, alpine tundra and freshwater fens that surround the lake. Waterton-Glacier International Peace Park was created by the US and Canada in 1932, and in 1976 it was designated an International Biosphere Reserve. Later, in 1995, it was inscribed as a World Heritage Site by UNESCO. The upper and middle Waterton Lake system has a surface of 10.1 km2 (3.9 sq mi), while the lower lake, which is in Canada only, has 1.5 km2 (0.58 sq mi) and lies at an altitude of 1,274 m (4,180 ft). Two soundings of the lake were 210 feet (64 m) and 317 feet (97 m), done in 1910. More recent soundings have revealed a depth of 490 ft (150 m). Highway 5 has its westernmost point on the shores of the lake. * Upper Waterton Lake with Prince of Wales Hotel and Mount Richards * Waterton Lake in winter * 49th parallel north at Waterton Lake * Looking south across Waterton Lake.

  • Уо́тертон или Аппер-Уотертон (англ. Upper Waterton Lake, Waterton Lake, Chief Mountain Lake, Kootenai Lake) — крупнейшее озеро одноимённой озёрной группы — Уотертон, находится на границе Канады и США, в природоохранном округе № 4 Уотертон на юге провинции Альберта (Канада) и округе Гласье на севере штата Монтана (США). Озеро находится на высоте около 1280 метров над уровнем моря. Площадь — 941 га. Максимальная глубина составляет 135,3 м или, согласно другим данным, около 150 метров (глубочайшее озеро в Скалистых горах и провинции Альберта). Озерная группа Уотертон состоит из 3 водоёмов, соединённых протоками: Аппер-Уотертон (49°00′ с. ш. 113°54′ з. д.), (49°03′24″ с. ш. 113°52′37″ з. д.) и (49°05′33″ с. ш. 113°51′12″ з. д.). Канадская часть озера находится на территории национального парка Уотертон-Лейкс, американская часть — на территории национального парка Глейшер. В 1932 году оба парка объединены в , который в 1995 году был признан Всемирным наследием ЮНЕСКО. В 1979 году ЮНЕСКО организовало для защиты уникальной альпийской и субальпийской природы на берегах озера. Первым европейцем, исследовавшим озеро в 1858 году, был Томас Блакистон. Озеро было им названо в честь английского натуралиста . (ru)
