Pike Lake (Saskatchewan)

Pike Lake is an oxbow lake of the South Saskatchewan River in the Canadian province of Saskatchewan. It is about 36 kilometres (22 mi) south of downtown Saskatoon in the RM of Vanscoy No. 345, 2.5 kilometres (1.6 mi) west of the South Saskatchewan River. The lake is in the aspen parkland transitional biome between prairie and boreal forest in Palliser's Triangle.

Pike Lake Water Supply
Lake water levels are controlled by a 1.5-metre high, 280-metre long spur dyke () that diverts water from the South Saskatchewan River (). The Pike Lake Water Supply, as it is known, is operated by the Saskatchewan Water Security Agency. Originally constructed in 1948, significant upgrades were done in the 1960s with a new pump and supply canal. By the 1990s, the South Saskatchewan River had naturally shifted course and the water levels at Pike Lake had dropped. In 1999, major upgrades were completed to the system to restore water levels. Further upgrades to the pump and canal were undertaken in 2020 at a cost of $2.8 million. == Recreation ==
