The Lake Tourouvre has been artificially formed in 1950 by damming the Saint-Maurice River with the La Trenche Generating Station built at southeast of the lake, north of La Tuque, in the administrative region of Mauricie, in Quebec, in Canada. Located entirely in forest and mountainous areas, this water body of 1,448 ha is ideal for tourist activities including boating, fishing, hunting, and other similar lakeside pastimes. == Geography == Lake Tourouvre receives the waters of the River Trenche through a long strait of 4 km by 0.7 km maximum width in northeast. Lake Tourouvre is 4 km wide by 8.4 km (including the Strait at the mouth of the River Trenche). The Saint-Maurice River flows into the lake Tourouvre by the west side. The dam of the “La Trenche Generating Station” is located 11.2 km (calculated by the water) upstream of the mouth of Vermillon River (La Tuque), 22.8 km from the dam Beaumont generating station and 35.2 km from the dam of the La Tuque Generating Station. This concrete dam-gravity type has a height of 53 m and a length of 442 m. Retained capacity is 6 million cubic meters of water measured at the outlet of Lake Tourouvre meters. From the boulevard Ducharme in La Tuque, we reach by road to Lake Tourouvre following a path of 48.7 km by road to “Rivière Croche” (Crooked River), the West rank and a forest road. The latter road crosses the Saint-Maurice River to the barrage of La Trenche Generating Station.〔Geographic Research conducted by historian Gaétan Veillette (Saint-Hubert, QC) on November 13, 2013, using Google map sur Internet.〕 The hamlet "Trenche" is located near the dam Trenche on the west bank of the Saint-Maurice River. A forest road serves the hamlet. 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「Lake Tourouvre」の詳細全文を読む スポンサード リンク
