We are a group of concerned residents (full time and seasonal) with an enduring interest in Sharbot Lake, the lake area we inhabit. Our goal is to ensure that the area continues to be as beautiful and unspoiled as possible. Eastern Ontario is one of the most picturesque and beautiful areas in Ontario; a vacation paradise. We want to keep it beautiful for generations to come.

Unfortunately, much of the historical data from Mississippi Valley Conservation Authority is corrupted but it appears that the lowest the lake has ever been is 191.50 MASL, or just 5 cm below what it is now.![]()
In spring, the clearance under the Road 38 bridge was as little as 1.26m (about 49"). Today the clearance is 1.85m or about 73".![]()
Sharbot is an uncontrolled lake with no dams controlling the water level. Water is constantly flowing eastward into Elbow Lake and then into the Fall River. In the past month there has only been 13.4mm of rain.
