Pend Oreille is an amazing body of water. It’s very deep. If my memory is correct, it’s the deepest fresh water lake in North America.

Maybe it’s #2. Lake Tahoe is #1.

"It is 43 miles (69 km) long, and 1,150 feet (350 m) deep in some regions, making it the fifth deepest in the United States."

Okay. You made me go look it up. :-)

Looks like I was way wrong. Tahoe is quite a bit deeper than Pend Oreille. But Crater Lake is a bit deeper than Tahoe.

The top five:

Crater Lake
(Oregon, USA) 1,943

Lake Tahoe
(California, USA / Nevada, USA) 1,645

Lake Chelan
(Washington, USA) 1,486

Lake Superior
(Ontario, Canada / Great Lakes / Michigan, USA / Minnesota, USA / Wisconsin, USA) 1,332

Lake Pend Oreille
(Idaho, USA) 1,152

Thanks for correcting my faulty memory. Hey, I’m getting old. ;-)
