Why this score?5 components
Included in the index
| Component | Rating | Points of weight | Measurement |
|---|---|---|---|
| Natural setting | Good | 21.0 of 35 | 70% natural land cover within 150 m of shore (63% forest, 7% wetland; 25% developed) |
| Geometric wind exposure | Excellent | 25.4 of 29 | mean fetch 597 m · 31% of sampled water within 500 m of shelter · short fetch in most directions |
| Motor & speed rules | Not modelled | — | Canada publishes vessel motor and speed restrictions as federal legal schedules, not map data, so they are not part of the Ontario index. Check local signage and Transport Canada rules before going out. |
| Public access | Good | 15.0 of 18 | 1 MNRF fishing access point · boat ramp |
| Road isolation | Mixed | 4.6 of 18 | nearby higher-volume roads · 31 Ontario Road Network segments within 1.2 km (traffic estimated from road class, not measured) |
Additional paddling considerations
These describe the lake but are not part of the v1 Paddling Index and do not change the number above.
- Wake sensitivity
- Moderate — narrow in places — wakes would carry across parts of the lake
- Observed motorized activity
- Unknown — No lake-level measurement of boat traffic is available. Legal permission to operate motors is not evidence of use.
- Wildlife habitat potential
- Moderate — 63% forest and 7% wetland cover within 150 m of shore
- Mapped wildlife habitat
- None mapped — Ontario MNRF has not mapped moose, deer or waterfowl habitat within 1 km of this lake. The province maps these areas where it has surveyed, so this is not evidence that wildlife is absent. · Ontario MNRF Wildlife Values Area.

Rabbit Blanket Lake — common questions
How deep is Rabbit Blanket Lake?
The deepest contour on the Ontario MNRF bathymetric survey of Rabbit Blanket Lake is 12.2 m (40 ft). That is the deepest depth the historical survey map records, which may differ from the deepest point of the lake itself.
How big is Rabbit Blanket Lake?

Is there public access to Rabbit Blanket Lake?
The Ontario MNRF lists 1 fishing access point within 100 m of the shoreline of Rabbit Blanket Lake: 1 boat launch. The list includes municipal and privately owned sites, and some may charge a fee or restrict parking, so it confirms a place anglers use rather than a public right of way. Check locally before you go.
