'Emerald Lake', or 'Rainbow Lake' as the First Nations call it, is known for its emerald green waters. The color comes from the reflection of light from a white deposit in shallow water.
Located on the Klondike Highway 12 km north of Carcross in the Yukon, the lake is surrounded by Surprise Mountain and Mt. Gilliam.
