Manouanis

The Manouanis River flows among the lakes and forested hills of the northern interior. Its waters reach Lake Manouanis, one of the headwaters of the Betsiamites River, which runs south to the St. Lawrence. The surrounding uplands form part of the country known to Innu communities, whose history extends across the rivers and lakes behind the coast. The neighbouring white mountains take their name from summits that remain snow-covered for much of the year.
