Spruce Falls was the local name for a small waterfall where the Swan River empties into Sisipuk Lake in north-eastern Saskatchewan, near the Manitoba border. In 1928, Spruce Falls became the site of a dam and temporary power plant supplying the Island Falls hydroelectric power development upstream on the Churchill River. The Swan River, about 6 kilometres (3.7 mi) in length, is the outlet channel from Chicken Lake (also known as Barrier Lake) into Sisipuk Lake. Sisipuk Lake, also known as Duck Lake, is a large lake along the course of the Churchill River. Swan River has a drainage area of 1,800 square kilometres (700 mi2) consisting of a number of lakes, chief among which are Chicken, Mari, and Kipahigan Lakes.[1]
