Magone Lake in the Malheur National Forest, is one of Grant County's most popular lakes. Geologists believe the lake was created by a land slide in the early 1800's. Trees below the surface still make non-motorized boating a bit hazardous. Angling for 8-to 15-inch eastern brook and rainbow trout is consistently good. This area offers swimming, hiking, fishing, geology viewing, and wildflower viewing. Magone Lake covers about 50 acres and features both deep holes (up to 100 feet) and shoals on the north side. A hiking trail circles the lake.
