274-acre lake in Algoma District, Ontario. The lake tops out around 20 ft. The depth data here comes from the Ontario MNRF survey of 1970, a decades-old survey (a transect sounding survey). The rest of this page walks each species through its year, using the map's own scoring.
The drawn water covers 276 acres wrapped in 2.9 miles of bank. Its 1.3 shoreline index means few bank features; the contours below do the pattern work.
