Water source for town of Larder Lake

Glendalough Lake

Ontario, Canada

Kettle Lake located at the base of the Larder Lake ski hill which is fed by artesian well and supplies the water source for the town nearby. Test site was on the south west side of the lake near the bottom of the Axel ski run and mid-point between the pump house and lift house. Shoreline is wet and marshy so wear rubber boots or old shoes to get in along short path to the lake.
