Less than a ten minute drive west of Nexen’s Long Lake oil sands operation is Gregoire Lake Provincial Park, a year-round facility that offers swimming and boating in summer and snowmobiling and cross country skiing during the winter. It’s frequently visited by out of town campers and residents of the nearby communities of Anzac and Fort McMurray, Alberta.
