Reindeer Lake, Glacial lake in Saskatchewan and Manitoba, Canada.

Reindeer Lake spans 6,650 square kilometers across northern Saskatchewan and Manitoba, featuring numerous small islands and an irregular coastline with deep bays.

The lake served as a significant transportation route during the fur trade era, with David Thompson establishing Bedford House trading post on its western shore in 1796.

Indigenous communities maintain strong connections to the lake, with settlements including Brochet in Manitoba and both Southend and Kinoosao in Saskatchewan.

The Whitesand Dam regulates water flow from Reindeer Lake into the Reindeer River, which subsequently joins the Churchill River system flowing toward Hudson Bay.

Deep Bay, formed by a meteorite impact 99 million years ago, reaches depths of 220 meters, making it an exceptional geological formation within the lake system.
