Lake George (or Weereewa in the indigenous language) is a lake in south-eastern New South Wales, Australia. Lake George is about 40 kilometres north-east of Canberra along the Federal Highway en route to Sydney. At 25 km (16 mi) long and 10 km (6.2 mi) wide, Lake George is long, largely flat and extremely shallow, with a very small catchment. Resultant evaporation rates as well as a tendency for strong winds to blow the water back on itself explain the mysterious filling and drying episodes on both short term (hours) and long term (years) time scales that have been observed.
