Lake of the Rivers

Lake of the Rivers[1] is a salt lake in the Canadian province of Saskatchewan. It is in the Prairie Pothole Region of North America, which extends throughout three Canadian provinces and five U.S. states, and within Palliser's Triangle and the Great Plains ecoregion of Canada.[2] The lake is long, narrow, shallow, and located in a valley that was formed by glacial meltwaters at the end of the ice age. The north end of the valley opens up to Old Wives Lake and south-east along the valley is Willow Bunch Lake. Beyond Willow Bunch Lake, the valley opens up into the Big Muddy Badlands.[3]
