Description
Pan is a moderate size, relatively
deep lake on the southeastern stretch of the Boulder/Kawishiwi Loop. Nearly
round in form and half a mile across, it is almost 60' deep. To the northeast
a 55 rod portage leads to Panhandle and to Makwa
beyond. To the south a 50 portage provides access to Kivandeba, while to
the southeast a 20 rod carry to a small pond is followed by a 15 rod carry
into Kivaniva. To the west lies the backcountry
of the Humpback Lake Primitive Management
Area.
Campsites
Pan has two designated campsites, on
its northwestern and northeastern shores.
Planning Considerations
Pan is a link in a chain of lakes running
from Makwa in the north to the Kawishiwi River,
a chain which is itself a part of the great loop of interior lakes arching
up from Makwa over to Boulder, and then back southward through Beaver to
return to the slow moving Kawishiwi. Pan is also well situated to serve
as a base camp for bushwhacking into the Humpback Lake PMA, or up the creek
from Kivandeba towards John Ek Lake.
Wildlife
Pan supports a variety of fish species
including Bluegill (Lepomis
macrochirus), Northern Pike (Esox
lucius), Rock Bass (Ambloplites
rupestris), Walleye (Stizostedion
vitreum), White Sucker (Catostomus
commersoni), and Yellow Perch (Perca
flavescens).
