The lake was named for Israel Seymour, one of the original grantees. Natives called it Namagonic ("salmon trout spearing place").[1] It is one of only two deep, cold, and oligotrophic lakes in the Clyde River system.[2][3] The freshwater lake covers {{convert|1732|acre|km2}} and is {{convert|3|mi}} long and {{convert|2|mi}} wide; its maximum depth is {{convert|167|ft|m}}. It is shaped like a giant number "7".[4] The lake is fed by two primary streams, an outlet from Mud Pond and Sucker Brook. The lake drains into Echo Pond, which empties into the Clyde River, Lake Memphremagog and, eventually, Canada's St. Lawrence River. A dam is used for hydroelectric power. Construction on the dam was completed in 1928. It has a normal surface area of {{convert|2.8|sqmi}}. It is owned by Citizens Utilities Company.[5] The dam is made of stone with a concrete core. The foundation is soil. The height is {{convert|7|ft}} with a length of {{convert|68|ft}}. Maximum discharge is {{convert|85|ft3}} per second. Its capacity is {{convert|5200|acre.ft}}. Normal storage is {{convert|3500|acre.ft}}. It drains an area of {{convert|20.1875|sqmi}}.[5] The dam was rebuilt in 2004.[3] Footnotes1. ^{{cite web|url=http://www.virtualvermont.com/towns/morgan.html|title=Morgan, Vermont, New England, USA|publisher=}} 2. ^The other being Echo Lake 3. ^1 {{cite web|url=http://www.anr.state.vt.us/dec//waterq/planning/docs/pl_basin17.assessment_report.pdf|title=Welcome to DEC - Department of Environmental Conservation|publisher=}} 4. ^{{cite web|url=http://www.morebeach.com/beach_pictures/vermont/lake_seymour_morgan.html|title=MoreBeach.com - Beach Cams and Surf Report|publisher=}} 5. ^1 {{cite web|url=http://findlakes.com/seymour_lake_vermont~vt00023.htm|title=Seymour Lake|publisher=}} External links
