Other Information

Wabamun Lake (sometimes spelled Wabumun) is one of the most heavily used lakes in Alberta, Canada. It lies 65 kilometres (40 mi) west of Edmonton, Alberta. It is 19.2 kilometres (11.9 mi) long and 6.6 kilometres (4.1 mi) narrow, covers 82 square kilometres (32 sq mi) and is 11 metres (36 ft) deep at its deepest, with somewhat clear water. Its name derives from the Cree word for mirror, ᐋᐧᐸᒧᐣ (wâpamon) [1].

Extensive Development starting with the Grand Trunk Pacific Railway has impacted the ecology of the lake. An oil spill in 2005 and unauthorized development in 2012 are further examples of unplanned activities surrounding the lake [1, 2].
