Lac à l'Eau Claire (clearwater lakes) in Quebec Canada. The lakes are meteor craters. The larger one is 22.5 miles in diameter, the smaller one has a diameter of 16 miles. The centers of the craters are about 20 miles apart.

The theory that they were caused by two meteors that were bound to each other by gravity stiking at the same time has been shown to be untrue. The larger crater is 290M years old but the smaller one is 460-470M years old.
