Driedmeat Lake (Alberta)

Driedmeat Lake is a long ribbon lake in Alberta; part of the Battle River system. It lies south of the city of Camrose. The city draws its water supply from the lake. It was originally created by a glacial meltwater channel,
which carved the surrounding valley. In the valley and around it, Saskatoon berries, an ingredient of pemmican, grow and are endemic in the area.
==History==
Before Europeans settled on the land, the Blackfoot tribe and Cree native's would use the area around the lake to camp and hunt. The resulting name of "Driedmeat" comes from the Cree word for drying Bison meat and making pemmican. A nearby hill was the origin of the lake's name, the hill's name itself is Driedmeat. Which is now disrupted by gravel extraction operations.
In 1885, Joseph Tyrrell described a Metis settlement of forty families along the Battle River four miles from Driedmeat lake. They lived in "substantial log houses." Their cultivation of crops allowed them to be self-sustaining. Crops included wheat, barley, oats, potatoes, turnips, and Indian corn. Live stock included horses, cattle and sheep; all healthy, Tyrrell observed.
