Zengena Lake
Zengena Lake (Amharic: ዘንገና ህይቅ) is a crater lake located at 10°54′50″N 36°58′00″E in the Awi Zone of the Amhara Region in Ethiopia. It is situated between the towns of Injibara and Kessa, only 200 m from the Addis Ababa-Bahir Dar highway at an elevation of 2500 m. The diameter of the lake is roughly 1 km. With a maximum depth of 166 m, it is the second deepest lake in Ethiopia after Lake Shala. Its rim is made of unconsolidated ash deposits. Zengena Lake is most likely a maar lake formed by volcanic explosion and collapse.[1]

gollark: I *used* to have a command computer, but alas.
gollark: I don't think I have much like that in storage. I'd have to check.
gollark: Sure, it's just "trivial depth first search" and "why would you even want that", but it works, and it takes mere *seconds* to solve a 100-cell maze.
gollark: SMT solvers are fun. I abused Z3 to solve mazes one time.
gollark: Maybe I should have remote access to that. Oh well.
