Reed Lake[1] is an intermittent, shallow endorheic salt lake in the south-western region of the Canadian province of Saskatchewan. Most of the lake and its shoreline is designated an Important Bird Area (IBA) of Canada and it is part of a Western Hemisphere Shorebird Reserve Network (WHSRN). Access to the lake is from a lookout tower and a walking path[2] alongside the Trans-Canada Highway, about 2.4 kilometres (1.5 mi) west of the town of Morse.[3][4]
