Saddle Lake: This man-made lake was built by Doukhobors in 1912 as a reservoir dam to meet irrigation needs for the extensive communal orchards and grain fields below. They named it Sedlina (Седлина) from the Russian term sedlo meaning “saddle”. It is known in English as Saddle Lake. A system of pipelines carried water to agricultural lands. It was a favorite place of Doukhobor leader Peter “Lordly” Verigin for holding outdoor prayer meetings. Just a short hike a slight distance above the lake. Walk along the lake trail near the cement barrier, follow the road up, and then take one of 2 trails that will end up just above or just below the cache.
