Indian Lake Chain, Ontario

The Indian Lake Chain is a series of lakes located northwest of Vermilion Bay, Ontario at approximately 49 degrees 55 minutes north and 93 degrees 35 minutes west. [Feist Lake, Kenora District, Ontario 1:50,000 scale topographic map 2nd edition, Energy Mines and Resources Canada, 1988] According to maps published by resorts located on the lakes, The Indian Lake Chain consists of ten lakes: Little Boulder Lake, Boulder Lake, Cobble Lake, Bladder Lake, Big Moose Lake, Little Moose Lake, Whitney Lake, Edward Lake, Indian Lake and Forrest Lake. [Map produced by Clark's Camp summer 2007]

The official topographic map of the area shows only seven lakes, as Little Boulder, Boulder, Cobble and Bladder Lakes are all simply labeled 'Cobble Lake'. The surface elevation of the lakes is approximately 377 metres above sea level, and the water level is maintained by the Forest Lake Dam. (Forest Lake is spelled with two R's on local maps but only one on the topographic map).

Fishing is a popular activity in the summer. Species caught in these lakes include walleye (sometimes known locally as pickerel), muskellunge (muskie), pike, smallmouth bass and lake trout. [Map produced by Clark's Camp summer 2007]
