@CL207 I'd like to know too; it looks interesting.

@CL207 Is it an artificial lake that was deliberately created by the government?

@CL207 Old gold mines. The land there is very wet and used to have a lot of minerals. The miners come, dig a hole and it starts filling with water. In fact they need to constantly pump their mines out while in operation.

@CL207 The lake at the airport is for puddle jumpers. Lots of those in Alaska.

@CL207 some of these are probably designed retention ponds, some may be reshaped a little to better fit a development.

@CL207 A lot of them are used for floatplanes or holding ponds (slough overflow).

@CL207 probably lots of swampy land that has to be drained for development

Cin @sha7pes ·

@CL207 Gravel pits/ Quarry that have been filled in That and retention ponds

@CL207 Thought about potential water treatment from gold mines but it’s more around Dawson city than Fairbanks + wouldn’t be that close to city anymore. No idea, retention ponds ?
