Calm Lake in Rainy River District, Ontario
This lake has 8 Layers or 15 Layers for HD Version
Calm Lake is a massive 5,984-acre Canadian Shield lake in the Rainy River District of northwestern Ontario near Atikokan, reaching depths well in excess of 200 feet across 64 miles of rugged, granite-rimmed shoreline. As the headwaters of the legendary Seine River Chain, Calm Lake anchors one of the most celebrated connected waterway systems in all of Ontario, flowing westward through Banning Lake, Chub Lake, Little McCauley Lake, and Perch Lake across more than 30 miles of pristine wilderness water. Its cold, deep, oxygen-rich depths support trophy Lake Trout alongside outstanding Walleye, Smallmouth Bass, and Northern Pike that draw serious anglers from across North America.
Located near Atikokan — known as the Canoeing Capital of Canada — Calm Lake sits at the gateway to one of the most remote and unspoiled wilderness regions on the continent, bordered by Quetico Provincial Park to the south and the vast boreal forests of northwestern Ontario stretching in every direction. The lake's storied history runs deep, from its role as a fur trade canoe route to the gold rush era of the late 1800s and the dramatic 1943 diversion of the Seine River to access iron ore beneath nearby Steep Rock Lake. Today it draws canoeists, trophy anglers, and wilderness seekers who value both the lake's extraordinary size and its role as the starting point for one of Ontario's great paddling adventures.
A laser-cut wooden map of Calm Lake makes a breathtaking and truly one-of-a-kind piece of wall art for any Ontario fishing camp, Quetico-area cabin, or Canadian Shield wilderness enthusiast's home. The natural wood top layer traces every dramatic bay, point, and island along this iconic lake's 64 miles of wild shoreline in stunning detail, while the light-to-dark blue gradient layers beautifully convey the remarkable depth and untamed character of one of northwestern Ontario's most legendary bodies of water. A handcrafted statement piece and the ultimate gift for anyone who has experienced the extraordinary wilderness of Calm Lake and the Seine River Chain.

The difference between standard and HD maps is the number of layers. Standard maps have 1 land layer and 7 water layers. The HD lake maps have 1 land layer and 14 water layers. So twice the detail. The HD Maps are limited to Extra Large, XX Large, and Gigantic sizes only. On the smaller sizes the depth change of the wood is too extreme and you end up losing detail.
