Viewscape:
The lake is surrounded by conifer covered rolling hills with a few
stands of poplar where logging had taken place.
Shoreline:
The steep banks are covered with a mixture of willows
and other deciduous trees eventually giving way to the conifers.
The shoreline itself is usually mud and gravel with yellow
water lilies and water grasses inhabiting the shallow waters.
