Cleawox Lake : ウィキペディア英語版 | Cleawox Lake 〕 }} Cleawox Lake (klē’ ə woks), is a body of water dammed by sand dunes along the Pacific Ocean coast of the U.S. state of Oregon.〔 The lake is about south of Florence along U.S. Route 101.〔 Sharing the lakeshore are private properties as well as Oregon Dunes National Recreation Area and Jessie M. Honeyman Memorial State Park, which also partly fronts on Woahink Lake.〔 ''Cleawox'' is derived from the Siuslaw name for the lake.〔 ==Geology== Cleawox Lake is a submerged remnant of the headwaters of a small coastal stream that existed before the most recent ice age. The lake formed after melting glaciers caused a rise in sea level that drowned the lower reaches of the stream. Sediments from the sluggish stream formed sand dunes, behind which the lake was dammed. The dunes, estimated to be advancing northward at a year, are encroaching on the lake.〔
