Kauakiekamatsh

Kauakiekamatsh is a lake in the forested country east of James Bay, its Cree name describing its nearly round shape. A stream links the lake with the Nemiscau River, part of the wider Rupert River system. The Rupert winds west through a landscape of lakes and rapids before reaching the bay at Waskaganish, joining the inland country to the coast through waterways long known to Cree travellers.
