Description
Little Manitou lake is a real gem, about 1.5 hrs from Regina, Moose Jaw and Saskatoon, makes this a ideal get away. This lake was formed by receding glaciers, along with evaporation. It has a specific gravity of 1.6, about five times the salt of the oceans water. Its funny to watch inexperienced people rent canoes, the canoes ride a lot higher than in a normal lake and lots of times end up tipping the canoe over, don't bring your cellphone or watch or camera out there, Basically its pretty hard to drown. It has been known to have great healing powers with the Natives for years. Canada`s own Dead Sea, about half the salinity of the Great Dead Sea. Image taken from a tripod.
