Hatchet Lake is a remote lake in north-eastern Saskatchewan, Canada, north of Wollaston Lake. From Wollaston Lake the Fond du Lac River flows through Hatchet Lake and Black Lake on its way to Lake Athabasca.[1] [2]
In 1963 the Hatchet Lake Lodge was constructed on Sandy Island (58.6417°N -103.5767°W), one of the islands near the eastern shore of Hatchet Lake.[3] Hatchet Lake Lodge is a fly-in fishing lodge.
The lake is served by the Hatchet Lake Airport and Hatchet Lake Water Aerodrome, both operated by the Hatchet Lake Lodge.
