Ward Lake is a lake on Revillagigedo Island in the Alaskan Panhandle about 10 miles north of Ketchikan. Following the start of the Aleutian Islands Campaign the native villagers of the Aleutian Islands were relocated to a number of evacuation camps in the Alaskan Panhandle including a former Civilian Conservation Corps camp at Ward Lake.
