| - Lake Steilacoom is a reservoir approximately 4 km (2.5 mi) southwest of Tacoma in Pierce County, Washington, United States. Its boundaries lie entirely within the city of Lakewood, Washington. The reservoir covers approximately 306 acres (1,240,000 m2), has a mean depth of 11 feet (3.4 m) and a maximum depth of 20 feet (6.1 m). Lake Steilacoom is a freshwater lake and drains into Puget Sound via Chambers Creek, which begins at its northern tip. The lake is fed at its southeastern end by two creeks: , which originates in springs below what is now Lakewood Towne Center, as well as Clover Creek which flows from its source near Frederickson to the lake. The reservoir was created in 1853 when Andrew Byrd built a dam across Chambers Creek, flooding what had previously been a small pond in a wetland. The dam was used for his sawmill (also built in 1853) and a grist mill (100 yards downstream, in 1857). A public boat launch can be found on the eastern shore in Edgewater Park. The smaller pond was known as Lake Wyatchew prior to the dam's installation, and was briefly known later as Byrd's lake. The Rhodesleigh mansion is located by the lake. The Nisqually Indians say this lake was possessed by an evil female monster known as Whe-atchee. Legends of the creature attacking people go back over a century. To this day, Nisqually refuse to fish or swim here. (en)
- Le lac Steilacoom est un lac de barrage américain situé à environ 4 km au sud-ouest de Tacoma, dans l'État de Washington. Le réservoir couvre environ 1 240 000 m2, a une profondeur moyenne de 3,4 m et une profondeur maximale de 6,1 m. Le lac Steilacoom est un lac d'eau douce et se déverse dans le Puget Sound via Chambers Creek, qui commence à son extrémité nord. Le lac est alimenté à son extrémité sud-est par deux ruisseaux : le ruisseau Ponce de Leon, qui prend sa source en aval de ce qui est maintenant le Lakewood Towne Center, ainsi que le ruisseau Clover qui coule de sa source près de Frederickson au lac. Le réservoir a été créé en 1853 lorsque Andrew Byrd a construit un barrage sur Chambers Creek, inondant ce qui était auparavant un petit étang dans une zone humide. Le barrage a été utilisé pour sa scierie (également construite en 1853) et un moulin à farine (100 mètres en aval, en 1857). Une rampe de mise à l'eau publique se trouve sur la rive est du parc Edgewater. Le plus petit étang était connu sous le nom de lac Wyatchew avant l'installation du barrage, et a été brièvement connu plus tard sous le nom de lac de Byrd. Le manoir Rhodesleigh est situé au bord du lac. Les Amérindiens Nisqually disent que ce lac était possédé par une méchante monstre femelle connue sous le nom de Whe-atchee. Les légendes de la créature attaquant les gens remontent à plus d'un siècle. À ce jour, les Nisqually refusent de pêcher ou de nager ici. (fr)
