lake scugog

Lake Scugog is a lake in Scugog Township near the town of Port Perry, Ontario. The lake has an area of 514 km with an average depth of 1.3 m. The lake is fed by the Nonquon and Layton Rivers and drained by the Scugog River. The lake was formed when William Purdy dammed the Scugog River at Lindsay, Ontario in 1834 to power his grist mill. The new lake was originally very unpopular with the local residents; its formation also destroyed the wild rice stands and cranberries harvested by the native Mississaugas. Today, the lake is used for fishing and recreational boating. The lake is surrounded by swamps and marshes which provide habitat for waterfowl and other wildlife. The name "Scugog" is an Ojibwe word meaning "marshy waters". Scugog, Lake
