data frame has 9 rows and 2 columns.
The areas and elevations of the nine largest lakes in
Manitoba, Canada. The geography of Manitoba (a relatively
flat province) can be divided crudely into three main
areas: a very flat prairie in the south which is at a
relatively high elevation, a middle region consisting
of mainly of forest and Precambrian rock, and a northern
region which drains more rapidly into Hudson
Bay. All water in Manitoba, which does not evaporate, eventually drains
into Hudson Bay.
