Hiking
The landscape near Saw Lakes is characterized by a large esker system from the last ice age. These are low ridges of gravel and sand deposited by subglacial meltwater streams. After the glaciers retreated, the surrounding landform is lower than the former river; later, lakes formed between the eskers.
