TEST RIDE AFTER MAINTENANCE MCGREGOR LAKE PROVINCIAL PARK
TEST RIDE AFTER MAINTENANCE MCGREGOR LAKE PROVINCIAL PARK
On November 26th 2020 I took a short test ride to this location MCGregor Provincial Lake Provincial Park in Southern Alberta. After performing some maintenance on my Africa Twin such as replacing front Wheel Bearings Clean Air Filter and Valve Adjustment basically getting the bike ready for the next season of riding. It was a solo ride all about taking easy and taking some Photos and riding on gravel and dirt on an abandoned campsite for the Season. The lake in the summer time is occupied by campers and boaters but this time I had it all to myself.
McGregor Lake is an elongated reservoir in Southern Alberta. McGregor Lake was created in 1920 by the completion of two dams bracketing water flowing through in Snake Valley. It is situated 100 km southeast of Calgary in the Vulcan County.
The reservoir occupies part of the Snake Valley, prehistorically, a thoroughfare for members of the Blackfoot Confederacy. The first European settlers arrived mid-nineteenth century. Ranching was well established by the 1880s. Shortly after, homesteading and farming were prevalent in the valley. The rich soil and dry climate led to an interest in irrigation. Construction began in 1909 on a major reservoir.
Two dams were built - one in the north near Milo, Alberta and a second, south dam. McGregor Lake was created when the Canada Land and Irrigation Company completed the South and North McGregor dams. Some of the water in the reservoir comes from the Old Man River, but a canal was also constructed to bring water from the Bow River near Carseland. Construction was a ten-year project, the reservoir began filling in 1920. It was administered as a private company until 1950, when the federal Prairie Farm Rehabilitation Administration assumed control and modified the dam into a zoned earthfill structure from its previously homogeneous state. In 1973, McGregor Lake and its control structures were transferred to Alberta Environment.
