Map of the Area

Any maps and map views are for general information only. Do not rely on them for navigation or to determine legal boundaries.

Other Information

Majeau Lake Natural Area has slightly undulating topography with upland aspen-balsam poplar forest, black spruce/Labrador tea peatland, willow shrubland (along the stream), and an old open field that is reverting to shrubland & aspen forest. (Alberta Parks website, 2012).

Limited disturbance was observed in both the north and south portions of site. Range Road 34, at the western boundary, has limited maintenance in the winter, so an appropriate vehicle is advised. This road stops roughly at the northwest corner of the site of the southern quarter. Primitive trails exist particularly along the western fence line including an abandoned cut line. Numerous animal tracks ((and very different micro-bio areas ??)) were observed with negligible human activity [1].

No Access to the Lake from the southern OC portion. The intermediate land appears to be a grazing lease provided to a local farmer but on Crown Land with a grazing lease provided to a local farmer [2].

The Majeau Family, was for whom the lake was named, were settlers from Montreal. They were well known for their hospitality and were often visited by travellers in the area. Prior to this name, it was called Island Lake [3].
