Lake Mapourika is located on theWest Coast ofNew Zealand'sSouth Island.[1] It lies north ofFranz Josef Glacier, and the out-flowingŌkārito River drains it into theŌkārito Lagoon.[1] It is the 3rd largest of the West Coastlakes, aglacier formation from thelast ice age.[2] Since the water from glacial melts no longer drains into the lake, it is filled with fresh rain water which runs through the surrounding forest floor,collecting tannins, giving it its dark colour.[1] As the winds of the region sweep high above the mountains of theSouthern Alps, the water is left unruffled and quite reflective of the forest on the lake fringes.[3][4]
