Upper Harker Lake

Upper Harker Lake is a shallow glacial lake located in Kidder County, North Dakota, United States. It is south-southeast of the town of Dawson, North Dakota, and east of the state capital, Bismarck. The lake is entirely surrounded by the wetlands and marshes of the Slade National Wildlife Refuge, and public access is limited.
==History==
Historically, the marshes and wetlands south of the town of Dawson, North Dakota support a large quantity of migratory waterfowl, which have attracted hunters. George Theron Slade, Third Vice President of the Northern Pacific Railroad, enjoyed hunting game birds in the area. In 1924, he began purchasing land around Upper Harker Lake for the use of a private shooting club.〔United States Fish and Wildlife Service (2006). (Slade National Wildlife Refuge Overview ). Retrieved Aug. 15, 2006.〕 Slade invested a considerable sum into improving the land with the aim of making it more attractive for waterfowl. Improvements included planting and harvesting a limited amount of organically-grown grain to provide bird feed, and a well capable of pumping 60,500 liters (16,000 gallons) of water per hour to keep the lake level from falling during drought. In 1940, Slade donated the land to the United States Fish and Wildlife Service, which used the land to establish the Slade National Wildlife Refuge.〔United States Fish and Wildlife Service (2006). (Long National Wildlife Refuge: "Slade National Wildlife Refuge: Kidder County, North Dakota" ). Retrieved Aug. 15, 2006.〕
