<p>Flathead Lake is a large natural lake in northwest Montana and is the largest natural freshwater lake by surface area that is west of the Mississippi in the contiguous United States. The lake is a remnant of the ancient, massive glacial dammed lake, Lake Missoula of the era of the last interglacial.</p>

<p>Recreation on and around the lake includes sailing, powerboating, waterskiing, swimming, fishing, picnicking, and camping. In the summer, roadside stands along the east shore offer a variety of locally grown cherries, apples, plums, and other fruits. There are numerous motels and rental cabins in addition to public campgrounds scattered all around the shoreline.</p>
