Expanding this article

I grew up beside Clearwater Lake, so I'd like to expand this article based on geographic and geological references, images taken by local residents (with their written permission, of course), and articles from local sources. I'm new to editing, so bear with me. Here is a basic roadmap of how I see this page developing:

Location
- Specific location in Manitoba
- Geographic features
- Points of interest
Geology
- Brief explanation of the geology and how it results in such clear water
Historical significance
- Airport
- Sanitorium
- Residential school
- Murder of Helen Betty Osborne
- I hope to find references for the lake's Indigenous cultural significance as well.
Records and claims to fame
- Records for largest fish caught in the lake
- Quantitative information on how clear the water is...

I'll be seeking help from my contacts back home, including archival material from the Opasquia Times (the newspaper of record for The Pas, which is the nearest town).

I appreciate any edits and advice from more experienced editors as I fill out this stub. Violet Rose (talk) 20:53, 25 January 2025 (UTC)[reply]
