“Shoal Lake, Manitoba”的意思、由来-开放百科全书

Shoal Lake was first settled in 1875 when the North-West Mounted Police established a barracks along the Carlton Trail at the south end of the lake. The community was established in 1884, and moved to its current location at the lake's north side in 1885 to coincide with the building of the Manitoba & Northwestern Railroad (now CPR).^[5] The community incorporated as a village on January 12, 1909, and then changed to town status on October 10, 1997.^[2] It amalgamated with the Rural Municipality of Shoal Lake on January 1, 2011,^[2] which combined further with the Rural Municipality of Strathclair on January 1, 2015 to form the Rural Municipality of Yellowhead.^[4]

Geography

The community lies to the northeast of a lake of the same name. With a length of {{convert|9|km|mi|abbr=on}} and a stock of walleye and northern pike, the lake is a destination for boating and fishing.^[6]
