Reservoir Blanc
urban agglomeration of La Tuque, Canada
The Réservoir Blanc (English: White Reservoir) is a reservoir located in the city of La Tuque, in Quebec, Canada. The artificial lake was created in 1930 by the construction of the Rapide-Blanc Generating Station on Saint-Maurice River. The year 1996 marked the end of a period of 150 years of “drave” (transport of wood by flotation on the water) on the Saint-Maurice River; consequently the amateurs of recreation-touristic activities have appropriated the "Réservoir Blanc" mainly for boating and fishing. Around the reservoir and tributaries, a few hundred cottages are there and a few outfitters provide services to visitors.
