It is a community of 1,153 people.[6] Located at the "Narrows" between Peter Pond Lake and Churchill Lake, tourism and resource extraction (logging, fishing) are its main economic activities. HistoryBuffalo Narrows or Détroit du Boeuf as it was called in French was founded in the early 20th century as a trapping, mink ranching and fishing settlement by Scandinavian traders.[7] The community developed around an earlier Dene settlement. John Macoun, who was travelling the fur trade route from Methye Portage to Lac Île-à-la-Crosse visited the "Narrows" in September 1875. He described his visit to this old community in the following lines: "After sunrise, a head wind sprang up with which we battled all day and reached the "Narrows," that connect Buffalo and Clearwater lakes, before dark. Chipewyan House is situated at the eastern end of the "Narrows," and at the head of Clearwater Lake. Here the Chipewyans have built themselves a number of houses."[8] Chipewyan House where Macoun stayed for about four days was probably a small outpost of the Hudson's Bay Company much like Buffalo House at Dillon and Bull's House on the La Loche River. Clearwater Lake (or Clear Lake) was renamed Churchill Lake in 1944[9] and Buffalo Lake was renamed Peter Pond Lake in 1932.[9] Demographics{{canada_census| 2011_population = 1,153 | 2011_pop_delta = +6.7 | 2011_land_area = 68.63 | 2011_pop_density = 16.8 | 2011_pop_rank = | 2011_median_age = 27.6 | 2011_median_age_m = 26.1 | 2011_median_age_f = 30.2 | 2011_total_pvt_dwell = 449 | 2011_total_pvt_dwell_usual = 412 | 2011_mean_hh_income = | 2011_access_date = 2012-05-30 | 2006_population = 1,081 | 2006_pop_delta = -4.9 | 2006_land_area = 34.10 | 2006_pop_density = 31.7 | 2006_pop_rank = | 2006_median_age = 27.3 | 2006_median_age_m = 25.9 | 2006_median_age_f = 28 | 2006_total_pvt_dwell = 430 | 2006_total_pvt_dwell_usual = 375 | 2006_mean_hh_income = | 2006_access_date = 2012-05-30}} Climate{{Weather box| width=auto | location = Buffalo Narrows | metric first = yes | single line = yes | Jan record high C = 13.0 | Feb record high C = 15.0 | Mar record high C = 18.0 | Apr record high C = 29.6 | May record high C = 31.5 | Jun record high C = 36.0 | Jul record high C = 33.5 | Aug record high C = 35.0 | Sep record high C = 30.9 | Oct record high C = 27.2 | Nov record high C = 13.5 | Dec record high C = 10 | year record high C = 36.0 | Jan high C = -12.7 | Feb high C = -8.7 | Mar high C = -1.4 | Apr high C = 7.6 | May high C = 14.8 | Jun high C = 20.1 | Jul high C = 22.8 | Aug high C = 21.1 | Sep high C = 14.7 | Oct high C = 6.3 | Nov high C = -4.6 | Dec high C = -10.7 | year high C = 5.8 | Jan mean C = −17.5 | Feb mean C = −13.9 | Mar mean C = −7.1 | Apr mean C = 2.0 | May mean C = 9.1 | Jun mean C = 14.9 | Jul mean C = 17.7 | Aug mean C = 16.3 | Sep mean C = 10.3 | Oct mean C = 2.7 | Nov mean C = -7.8 | Dec mean C = -14.9 | year mean C = 1.0 | Jan low C = -22.3 | Feb low C = -19.1 | Mar low C = -12.8 | Apr low C = -3.5 | May low C = 3.4 | Jun low C = 9.6 | Jul low C = 12.6 | Aug low C = 11.4 | Sep low C = 5.8 | Oct low C = -0.9 | Nov low C = -11.0 | Dec low C = -19.1 | year low C = -3.8 | Jan record low C = -47.0 | Feb record low C = -44.0 | Mar record low C = -43.5 | Apr record low C = -31.8 | May record low C = -11.5 | Jun record low C = -1.5 | Jul record low C = 3.5 | Aug record low C = 0.1 | Sep record low C = -5.5 | Oct record low C = -20.0 | Nov record low C = -39.2 | Dec record low C = -42.4 | year record low C = -47.0 | Jan precipitation mm = 20.6 | Feb precipitation mm = 18.6 | Mar precipitation mm = 16.6 | Apr precipitation mm = 26.0 | May precipitation mm = 40.0 | Jun precipitation mm = 61.5 | Jul precipitation mm = 80.1 | Aug precipitation mm = 62.3 | Sep precipitation mm = 43.6 | Oct precipitation mm = 32.5 | Nov precipitation mm = 25.5 | Dec precipitation mm = 21.9 | year precipitation mm = 449.1 |rain colour = green |Jan rain mm = 0.5 |Feb rain mm = 0.4 |Mar rain mm = 2.1 |Apr rain mm = 9.5 |May rain mm = 35.8 |Jun rain mm = 61.5 |Jul rain mm = 80.1 |Aug rain mm = 62.3 |Sep rain mm = 43.0 |Oct rain mm = 19.3 |Nov rain mm = 2.0 |Dec rain mm = 0.8 |year rain mm = 317.4 |Jan snow cm = 21.7 |Feb snow cm = 19.7 |Mar snow cm = 15.5 |Apr snow cm = 16.7 |May snow cm = 4.4 |Jun snow cm = 0.0 |Jul snow cm = 0.0 |Aug snow cm = 0.0 |Sep snow cm = 0.6 |Oct snow cm = 13.2 |Nov snow cm = 24.7 |Dec snow cm = 22.4 |year snow cm = 138.8 |time day = 3pm |Jan humidity = 72.3 |Feb humidity = 67.1 |Mar humidity = 57.8 |Apr humidity = 50.7 |May humidity = 48.3 |Jun humidity = 52.4 |Jul humidity = 55.6 |Aug humidity = 57.2 |Sep humidity = 59.7 |Oct humidity = 64.4 |Nov humidity = 76.8 |Dec humidity = 77.0 |year humidity = 61.6 |unit precipitation days = 0.2 mm |Jan precipitation days = 12.7 |Feb precipitation days = 10.5 |Mar precipitation days = 8.7 |Apr precipitation days = 7.7 |May precipitation days = 9.8 |Jun precipitation days = 12.9 |Jul precipitation days = 14.9 |Aug precipitation days = 12.9 |Sep precipitation days = 12.1 |Oct precipitation days = 11.6 |Nov precipitation days = 13.0 |Dec precipitation days = 11.3 |year precipitation days = 138.0 |unit rain days = 0.2 mm |Jan rain days = 0.5 |Feb rain days = 0.3 |Mar rain days = 1.2 |Apr rain days = 4.0 |May rain days = 9.0 |Jun rain days = 12.9 |Jul rain days = 14.9 |Aug rain days = 12.9 |Sep rain days = 12.0 |Oct rain days = 7.2 |Nov rain days = 1.3 |Dec rain days = 0.6 |year rain days= 76.7 |unit snow days = 0.2 cm |Jan snow days = 12.6 |Feb snow days = 10.5 |Mar snow days = 8.0 |Apr snow days = 4.8 |May snow days = 1.7 |Jun snow days = 0.0 |Jul snow days = 0.0 |Aug snow days = 0.0 |Sep snow days = 0.41 |Oct snow days = 5.5 |Nov snow days = 12.2 |Dec snow days = 11.5 |year snow days = 67.3 | source 1 = Environment Canada[10] | date = November 2016 }} AttractionsBuffalo Narrows is notable for its scenery and its bridge that crosses the Kisis Channel.[9] The bridge was officially opened in 1981 replacing a ferry that was set up in 1957. This channel links Peter Pond Lake and Churchill Lake. Buffalo Narrows Sand Dunes ParkThe dunes of Buffalo Narrows Sand Dunes Park located 5 km north of downtown create a 10 km fine sandy beach along the southwest shore of Big Peter Pond Lake ({{coord|55|53|35.90|N|108|36|39.64|W}}). The park, which is 3,650 hectares (14.1 square miles) in size, includes the peninsula that nearly cuts Peter Pond Lake in two creating Little Peter Pond, the southern section and Big Peter Pond, the northern section. Formerly Crown land, the recreation area was transferred to the Northern Village of Buffalo Narrows in 2003. The community has assumed the responsibility for its maintenance and development.[11][12] The beach is a nesting site of the vulnerable sparrow-sized piping plover.[15] TransportationBuffalo Narrows is connected to the rest of Saskatchewan by Highway 155. Highway 155 is paved along its whole length. The community is served by the Buffalo Narrows Airport and the Buffalo Narrows Water Aerodrome. Financial ServicesInnovation Credit Union has an Advice Centre located at #3-1491 Pederson Ave. The location includes a full service automated teller machine.[13]EducationThe school in Buffalo Narrows is called Twin Lakes Community School or "TLCS". The K-12 school has approximately 310 students and about 30 teachers and is part of the Northern Lights School Division # 113.[14] Northlands College maintains a satellite campus in Buffalo Narrows.
