Kiskissink

Kiskissink is a long, narrow lake in the forested Laurentian interior, close to the divide between the Saint-Maurice and Lac Saint-Jean watersheds. Its name, shared by Algonquin and Innu speakers, means “little cedar”. Water flows north from the lake into the Bostonnais River. Indigenous communities travelled through this region between the upper rivers, using the waterways and meeting to exchange goods.
