Natural History
Freezeout Lake is a waterbody located in the U.S. state of Montana, in Teton County between Fairfield and Choteau. Both the lake and the surrounding Freezout Lake Wildlife Management Area are managed by Montana Department of Fish, Wildlife and Parks. The lake is known for its waterfowl population and management, as well as its opportunities for hunting and birdwatching. The lake's water levels are kept consistent by the irrigation ditches and natural sources that feed the lake. In addition to helping waterfowl by keeping water levels steady, islands were made to assist waterfowl in making nesting and roosting sites.
