Mattawasaga

The Mattawasaga River flows east through the forested country of northeastern Ontario into Lake Abitibi. Near its lower course, streams and wetlands meet among spruce, fir, poplar and birch. Lake Abitibi drains north through the Abitibi and Moose rivers to James Bay, placing the Mattawasaga within the broad network of waterways that links the inland lake country to the bay.
