Lac Simard is a freshwater lake in the municipality of Laforce, in the Regional County Municipality (RCM) of Temiscamingue, in northwestern Quebec, Canada. ==Geography== It is located near Moffet in Témiscamingue Regional County Municipality. Simard Lake covers an area of 170 km². With a length of 18 km and a width of 12 km, the lake is located about 25 km west of Decelles reservoir and more than 50 km to the east of Lake Timiskaming. Specifically, the Lac Simard is located to the east of Lake Des Quinze, north of the village of Laforce, at 16.5 km north of the village of Belleterre, at 19.5 kilometers north of the Zec de Kipawa and 64 km south of Rouyn-Noranda. The key neighboring drainage slopes are: * North side: Ottawa River, Darlens River, Kinojévis river and Serment River; * Side: Ottawa River, lake Nodiere and Lake des Fourches (lac Fork); * South side: Lake Devlin, Soufflot lake, lake aux Sables and Blondeau River; * West side: Ottawa River, Grassy Lake, Lake Roger and Lac Des Quinze. The Ottawa River flows on the north shore of Lac Simard (near the "tip of the Chasse-Galerie") and travels on 6.7 kilometers to the west across Lake Simard. Upstream, the waters of this river are coming from Decelles reservoir, located east of the lake. From this reservoir, downstream, the river is fed by rivers Darlens, Kinojévis and Roger. With several islands, Lake Simard proves to be an outgrowth of the Ottawa River. The north shore of lake forms two large curves; while the south coast has several bays: Bay of Deer River (French: baie de la rivière Chevreuil), Bay Klock, Poverty Bay and Bay Snags (baie des Chicots). The municipality of Laforce and Aboriginal settlement of Winneway extend on its southern shore.〔Atlas of Canada, Ministry of Natural Ressources of Canada〕 抄文引用元・出典: フリー百科事典『 ウィキペディア（Wikipedia）』 ■ウィキペディアで「Lac Simard (Temiscamingue)」の詳細全文を読む スポンサード リンク
