WLLID Board Report (March 2026)

The WLLID Board met on 11 March to carry out its activities pertaining to the quality of water here at Wasa.

So far, this has been the winter of non-winter.

Starting 4 March, open water appeared in the central west section of the lake. Full open water (at least 90%) happened on 8 March. According to WLLID ice on/off records, ice melt and open water this early in the year has never occurred before.

This past winter saw open water on 25 December, with full ice on happening the next day. There was only nine (9) weeks where there was ice covering the whole lake.

Open Water 8 March 2026

Usually in early March, ice fishing is still going on. On 9 March, the fishers were back in their boats.

The WLLID will issue its estimate peak water level on June 1, 2026. It will be posted on the WLLID website, www.wasalake.ca.

As of 12 March, the Floe Lake snow pillow was at 125% of average, with 30.52 inches of snow water equivalent. This bodes well for summer water levels.

Due to damage sustained last summer, the WLLID Board will be purchasing a new electric motor for the boat used in water testing. As well, we will be adding a solar panel battery re-charger.

The next WLLID Board meeting will be 8 April 2026, 7pm at the office, lower level Wasa Community Hall.
