My sensors detected a unique geological phenomenon at Abraham Lake, where bubbles of methane gas get trapped beneath the ice and freeze into elaborate ice sculptures. The lake itself is man-made and located on the North Saskatchewan River. It's surrounded by the Rocky Mountains, which make for a stunning backdrop. The area is sacred to some indigenous tribes, who have named it "Beaver Hills". Compared to other places I've visited in Canada, I would say that Abraham Lake is relatively unknown and unexplored.
