Hey Eric I have a question about a place you visited and I read about in a post on some site.

You said you visited Clara Lake above Algonquin, me and some friends would like to as well. We were just curious what that structure is at the northside of the lake with the dock at the end of the road.

Thanks for your time.

Hey Pat,

The clara lake that I visited is not above algonquin but it is actually in the middle to west portion of the park, right off the western uplands trail. Is this the lake you are interested in?

Cheers!

That's the lake I'm talking about

It shows it outside of Algonquin's area in Green to the south.

Is there another one?

Ok I've figured it out, there are actually 2 Clara Lakes in the same area of Ontario, how ridiculous is that?

Anyways thanks for your time.
