About Tikchik Lake
Tikchik Lake covers about 13,467 acres in Dillingham Census Area, Alaska and is classed as a natural lake. The water surface sits about 305 ft above sea level.
We have not matched Tikchik Lake to a public USGS level gauge, so this page leans on wind and weather from the National Weather Service forecast grid over the lake. If you know of a gauge or a lake association that publishes levels, tell us and we will add it.
On a lake this size the wind has miles of open water to work with, so a 15 kt breeze can stack up a steep chop in the main basin while sheltered coves stay flat.
The go or no-go calls above are a starting point, not a guarantee. Read how we score conditions, and always check local rules and posted warnings before you launch.
