    Quill Lake West Shore by Sarah Morhart

    It was very windy while testing. The wind speed was around 50 km/h, so the water was very cloudy. The water level is quite a bit lower than when I last observed it. There are lots of mud cracks present where the water used to be. There’s also quite a bit of white evaporate where the water used to be. The mud cracks and white evaporate are shown in the pictures attached.

    Lots of algal blooms near the dock, potentially Cyanobacteria

    North end of Binkley Bay by Carola Giudicelli

    I had to change the sample location on Cree Lake due to rough water, constant wind makes it hard to travel on the lake.

    Kipabiskau Lake - 600m southeast of Kipabiskau Regional Park by AL BRADSHAW

    Area has been in drought conditions for past 2 years with minimal rain and spring runoff. 40 year residents do not recall the lake being this low. Water clarity has been excellent although weed growth is becoming an issue with mechanical harvesting done in Aug and planned for next July. No or minimal algae growth with the thought that the increased weed growth is competing for nutrients.
