The time c taken to reach the lake and the dis- s tancc to lie travelled prohibits other s than residents in the district!, from t attempting the journey. The revenue collected during the past year amounted to £66S, as against £409 for the previous year. Angling has proved one of the leading attractions at the lake. The red deer herd is reported to he rapidly increasing, and it is only a matter of a few years when good stalking will he available e
in the vicinity of the lake. During the year, by an arrangement with the owners of a private telephone wire, the Department had its accommodation house connected with Frasertovn by-telephone.
