CHARRON LAKE
Charron Lake is roughly a circular lake fed and drained by the Palsen River which drains north to the arctic. Terrain is rolling and moderate, typical of the western Precambrian shield. Some suggestion that the lake is a meteor impact crater may be supported by the angular rocks observed underwater mainly in the SW quadrant. The lake has over 100 islands and in places has a rugged and jagged edge. Low spruce populate any areas when soil has accumulated. Alders edge into the lake. There is little organic debris entering the lake. Water is not tannic and fishing is excellent for walleye, lake trout and northern pike. There are no roads anywhere near the lake. The lake was fished and trapped by native people but by in large there are no regular inhabitants on the lake. Caribou, bald eagles, vultures, bears, beavers and the occasional pelican make up the fauna in the area.
