Kenogami Lake

Kenogami lake is a long lake in the Saguenay–Lac-Saint-Jean region of south-central Quebec, Canada. Situated at an altitude of 150 m (490 ft), the lake is 27 km (17 mi) long and 11 to 102 m (36 to 335 ft) deep. "Kénogami" means "long lake" in the Montagnais dialect and was originally used to refer to Kenogami Lake, Ontario. It is situated in the Laurentian Highlands 150 km (93 mi) north of the Saint Lawrence River, into which it drains via the Saguenay River through the Chicoutimi and Aux-Sables Rivers. The lake is fed by dozens of small rivers coming from the Laurentian Highlands. The three principal being the Pikauba, Cyriac and Aux-Ecorces Rivers. The towns on its shores include Lac-Kénogami, and Hébertville. The area around the lake is served on the east side by route 175 (boulevard Talbot); on the north side by the Kénogami road, the Route des Bâtisseurs and the Saint-Dominique street in Jonquière. A few secondary roads have been built in the area for the needs of hydroelectricity, forestry, recreational tourism and residents of this area (especially the northern part of the lake). Hydroelectricity is the main economic activity in this sector; recreational tourism activities, second; forestry, third. The surface of Lake Kénogami is usually frozen from the beginning of December to the end of March, however the safe circulation on the ice is generally made from mid-December
