 Ominous storm approaching the south of Lake Nipissing Lake Nipissing (French: lac Nipissing) is a lake in the Canadian province of Ontario. It is 873.3 km² (337 square miles) in surface area, has a mean elevation of 196 m (643 feet) above sea level and is located between the Ottawa River and Georgian Bay. Excluding the Great Lakes, Lake Nipissing is the fifth-largest lake in Ontario. It is relatively shallow for a large lake, with an average depth of only 4.5 metres (15 feet). The shallowness of the lake makes for many sandbars along the lake's irregular coastline. The lake has many islands.
