Lake at Clearsand Beach. The diversion opened in 1965 and, a few years later, water levels in Christopher Lake rose 2.2 metres from 1960 levels. Controlling the outflow from Emma Lake is a grated culvert control structure through Highway 953. At the southern end of Christopher Lake is the second part of the Christopher Lake diversion project. It the was the final phase of the diversion project and it involved constructing the lake's outflow at Christopher Creek. Christopher Creek is a partially natural run and partially constructed channel that flows south from Christopher Lake near the village of Christopher Lake to the Spruce River south of the Little Red River Indian Reserve. Water flowing into Christopher Creek is controlled by a two-bay log-stop structure which controls flow into two culverts. The structure allows drawdown of both Emma and Christopher Lakes simultaneously. This final phase of the project wasn't completed until 1975. Fish species Fish commonly found in the lake include walleye, northern pike, white sucker, and yellow perch.
