The total area is descriptively divided into five sections These are; Jackfish Lake, South compartment of Jackfish Lake, Extension #2, Extension #3, and Chandler Lake. A more than cursory look was attempted on the marsh. Interior ground checks were most intensively carried out on Ext. #2, Ext. #3, and Chandler Lake. Cross sections were carried out on Jackfish Lake by boat. Due to low water levels, only a brief investigation of the south compartment of Jackfish Lake was conducted. The exterior of Jackfish Lake and the south compartment were described from the ends of road allowances and trails leading into the marsh. Immediately after the ground checks, aerial photographs were taken of each of the five sections. Photographs were also taken to illustrate the differences in the surrounding topography, vegetation,and land use.
