Crawford Lake

Crawford Lake is meromictic, meaning its layers do not mix. (Another meromictic lake is McGinnis Lake at the Petroglyphs Provincial Park.)

According to Conservation Halton's website, "In the deepest part of the lake 75 ft below the surface, sediment is deposited in annual layers and remains totally undisturbed. Scientists researching this sediment in the early 1970s discovered corn pollen dating from the 13th to 15th century. This led to the discovery of the archaeological footprints of a Wendat or Attawandaron village."

Alatsee in Germany. Photo taken by me. Found this interesting stuff on wikipedia: “Alatsee is a meromictic lake (which has layers of water that do not intermix). Many divers have died or disappeared mysteriously in this lake due to the  toxicity of the organisms living in this lake. These organisms create the "blood cloud "  that occurs quite abundantly throughout the year.”
