The Magic of Colors (Pink Lake)

Pink Lake is a meromictic lake located in Gatineau Park, Quebec Canada. The lake is in danger of eutrophication due to human activities. Park management forbids swimming in the lake, walking domestic animals near it, straying from the wooden boardwalk for sight-seers, and throwing stones into the lake.

In spite of its name, this lake is not pink. It inherited its name from a family who settled in the region in 1826. The Pinks, who were from Ireland, cleared their lot and grew potatoes, corn and wheat. Part of the property still belongs to their descendants, though most is now part of Gatineau Park.
