Five Mile Dam

Five Mile Dam is a very tiny stocked pond in southern Saskatchewan. It is located 57km WSW of Swift Current, just S of the town of Gull Lake. Access to the pond is from a gravel road E off Highway 37.

The pond is stocked yearly with rainbow trout. Note there is a reduced trout limit on the pond.

The story I heard about the pond was that it was created by damning a small coulee to create a reservoir to supply water to steam engines.
