Northern Hamlet of Black Point
|
Nestled in northwestern Saskatchewan, just south of La Loche, SK, this Northern Hamlet has a population of 39 people (2021 Census). This quiet little community provides a wonderful living environment for residents, many of which work within La Loche. Located on highway 956 that continues west to Garson Lake, this community has significant potential for growth if the highway is completed between Northern Alberta and Northern Saskatchewan.
