Named after Princess Patricia of Connaught, granddaughter of Queen Victoria, Patricia Lake is located in the Athabasca river valley. Patricia lake was the site for Project Habbakuk: project to use ice-based composite material to construct unsinkable aircraft carrier during World war II.Our favourite fall colour excursion is the short drive northwest of the townsite to Pyramid Lake. Prime time is first thing in the morning when the low sun washes warm tones over reddish-tinged Pyramid Mountain, and the usually calm water reflects the golden forest. Patricia Lake, a smaller lake along the way, can be every bit as photogenic as Pyramid Lake itself, depending on light conditions.
