Dubawnt

The Dubawnt River begins in the lake country north of the great northern forests and flows towards the barren grounds. It passes through a chain of lakes, including the vast, island-studded Dubawnt Lake, before joining the Thelon on its way to Hudson Bay. The surrounding region changes from coniferous forest in the southwest to lightly wooded or treeless tundra farther north. Caribou cross this country, which has been used by Dene hunters from the south and Inuit hunters farther north and east.
