	Lake Zurich - Wikipedia, the free encyclopedia
		Lake Zurich (Alemannic: Zürisee; German: Zürichsee) is a lake in Switzerland, extending southeast of the town of Zürich.
		It is formed by the river Linth, which, rising in the glaciers of the Tödi Range in Glarus, was diverted by the Escher canal (completed in 1811) into the Lake Walen, whence, by means of the Linth canal (completed in 1816), its waters are carried to the east end of the lake of Zürich.
		The eastern section of the lake is known as the Obersee, German for "upper lake".

		It leaves Lake Walen at Weesen and flows from there as Linth Channel through the Linth Plain and near Schmerikon into the Lake Zurich of which it is the main tributary.
		The taming of the Linth (Linthkorrektur) from 1807 to 1823 was one of the great engineering features of the beginning 19th century, the earliest project of such a size undertaken by the new Swiss state, and a great example of solidary action within the early Switzerland.
		The river correction put an end to the floodings, lowered the level of Lake Walen by five meters which greatly improved living conditions for the population, and dried up the swamps, resulting in 2000 hectares arable land in the Linth plain.

		Temporal coherence in spring plankton sucession of Lake Constance and Müggelsee was analysed in Straile and Adrian (2000).
		Using Secchi disk readings from a large number of Central European lakes we show that climate warming during the last deacdes resulted into an increased velocity of plankton sucession in temperate lakes, again closely associated with a shift in the mode of the NAO (Straile 2002).

		It served as a reminder that while Devils Lake gets much attention for its world-class winter perch fishing, the walleye fishing remains strong through the ice on the 104,000-acre lake.
		The beauty of Devils Lake is that when the perch fishing is difficult, the walleye or pike will often pick up the slack.
		As long as we continue to pull off a good spawn every couple of years, the walleye population in Devils Lake will continue to be in good shape.” Hiltner, too, said walleyes and pike offer a good alternative for perch anglers who run into a tough bite.

	CANOE Travel - Europe - Heidi ho
		Heidi -- played in the movies by Shirley Temple -- was sent from the city to the mountains to live with her white-bearded grandfather.
		The heavy fumes of the city had made her ill. Later, upon meeting Peter the goat-herder, this sweet little orphan girl joined him in exploring a wondrous world of alpine pastures and lakes, waterfalls, caves and beautiful mountain scenery -- just like we were doing.
		For example, many of Heidiland's villages occupy strategic points on the shore of the Lake of Walen (Walensee), which locals insist "is the cleanest lake in Switzerland." That body of water is noted for its sandy beaches, swimming, water skiing, sailing, boat harbors, fireplaces (barbecue pits), campgrounds and lakeside resorts and restaurants.

		We had reached the town of Yverdon-les-Bains at the far end of the lake by lunchtime as the riding was very flat and easy, but we were so keen to find a shop that we took a wrong turning that cost us a couple of miles of unnecessary riding.
		Near the end of the lake the road and cycle path went through two adjacent tunnels in the mountain, the cycle path having periodic unglazed windows to the lake on the right and the highway on the left.
		Riding along the lake front with its avenues of trees we noticed an ice cream hut in the shade: we were all thirsty with the sun beating down on us, so we decided we could definitely afford a ten-minute stop in this beautiful setting.
