释义 |
National ParkOriginally the site of Gray's Quarry, a gravel and sand pit, Indigo Lake came under the responsibilities of the National Park Service on December 27, 1974, with the creation of the Cuyahoga Valley National Recreation Area.[2] The pit was later filled with water by park service personnel to create what was subsequently called "Indigo Lake", which remains in place sustained by a constant supply of water from several natural springs in the immediate area. It is situated entirely within the boundaries of Cuyahoga Valley National Park.[3] It is one of only two places in the park closed to swimming.[4] Although protected as part of the national park, the lake is a popular spot for local fishing.[6] In addition, the lake, which normally freezes over in the colder months of the year, is used by the Akron Fire Department to practice under-ice rescue techniques each winter.[5] It is accessible by car from Riverview road, on foot via the Ohio & Erie Canal Towpath Trail, and by rail via a flag stop station nearby at {{Coord|41|11|39|N|81|34|45|W|region:US-OH_type:landmark|format=dms|name=Indigo Lake}}, part of the Cuyahoga Valley Scenic Railroad.[6][7] The lake is 722 feet (220 meters) above sea level and is 41 feet at the deepest point.[8] References1. ^1 Indigo Lake, Ohio Lake Finder, retrieved 13/10/12 {{coord|display=title|41.1929569|-81.5816918}}2. ^History of the Park, retrieved September 30, 2012 3. ^Cuyahoga Valley National Park, retrieved September 30, 2012, published by the USNPS 4. ^Park Closures, retrieved September 30, 2012, published by the USNPS 5. ^{{cite web|url=http://www.highbeam.com/doc/1G1-158748570.html|archive-url=https://web.archive.org/web/20150924142551/http://www.highbeam.com/doc/1G1-158748570.html|dead-url=yes|archive-date=September 24, 2015|title=Dive team practices rescues in frozen lake: Cold weather gives Akron firefighters the needed ice for annual training|accessdate=October 5, 2012|publisher=Akron Beacon Journal}} 6. ^1 {{cite web|url=http://www.highbeam.com/doc/1P3-1056809221.html|archive-url=https://web.archive.org/web/20150924202410/http://www.highbeam.com/doc/1P3-1056809221.html|dead-url=yes|archive-date=2015-09-24|title=Cuyahoga Valley National Park presents 'Get Up, Get Out & Go!{{'-}} |publisher=HT Media LT|accessdate=October 5, 2012}} 7. ^Ohio Hometown Locator, retrieved 13/10/12 8. ^Indigo Lake Topography, retrieved October 5, 2012 3 : Reservoirs in Ohio|Bodies of water of Summit County, Ohio|Cuyahoga Valley National Park |
