Answer
Primary succession is the re-colonization of wildlife where there has been no species of that kind before. Secondary succession is the growth of wildlife where there has been no life before caused from destruction, like in a strip mine or a vacant lot.
Therefore, since the lake became a maple forest, it was primary succession because it was one form of species adapting into a new enviorment.
