Lake Panorama is a man-made reservoir located in Panora, Iowa. It was created in the 1960s by damming the Middle Raccoon River. The lake has a surface area of over 1,600 acres and a maximum depth of 50 feet. It is primarily used for recreation, including boating, fishing, and swimming. The lake is also a popular destination for golfers, with two golf courses located on its shores. The hydrology of the lake is supported by a variety of surface water sources, including runoff from surrounding land, as well as snowmelt and precipitation. Agriculture is a significant land use in the area, with corn and soybeans being the primary crops grown in the region. The lake provides important habitat for a variety of aquatic species, including walleye, largemouth bass, and northern pike.
