Medicine Lake, Alberta


Summer visitors assume that Medicine is a normal mountain lake, but it isn't.During the summer, glacier melt waters flood the lake, sometimes overflowing it. In fall and winter the lake disappears, becoming a mudflat with scattered pools of water connected by a stream. But there is no visible channel draining the lake ? so where then does the water go?
