Wollaston Lake
Wollaston Lake is located in northeastern Saskatchewan, Canada. With a surface area of 2286 kmē (excluding islands; 2681 kmē if islands are included)^, it is the largest lake in the world that drains naturally in two directions.^ The Fond du Lac River flows out of the lake to the northwest, where it drains into Lake Athabasca, which ultimately drains into the Arctic Ocean via the Mackenzie River system. The Cochrane River flows out of the northeastern side of the lake and into Reindeer Lake, which drains via the Churchill River system into Hudson Bay. It thus sits on the Northern continental divide, or Laurentian Divide, that separates the watershed of the Atlantic Ocean from that of the Arctic Ocean, and enables river navigation between the two watersheds without the use of a portage.Top photos chosen by u all:
