Spring Meadow Lake State Park is a public recreation area covering 61 acres (25 ha) just west of Helena, Montana. Formerly the site of a gravel pit and factory, the park now centers on a man-made, spring-fed lake used for swimming, fishing, non-motorized boating, and scuba diving. It also offers picnicking, a one-mile trail encircling the lake, and activities such as ice fishing and ice skating in winter. Largemouth bass, westslope cutthroat trout, yellow perch, and pumpkinseed are the main catches. A fishing pier was added to 30-acre (12 ha) lake in 2011.
