quarry

Coquitlam

Lafarge Lake is man-made, where once a quarry was situated...the reclamation project by the City of Coquitlam has proved popular with many locals, including fishermen as the lake is stocked with Rainbow Trout

the municipality of Coquitlam lies inland, east of Vancouver, but is part of the large Metro Vancouver region

Incredible how man has completely altered the natural lay of the land to accommodate a burgeoning population. Nice to see that canoe!

So neat that it could be repurposed for recreation. Lots of high rise buildings there I see.
