Mistinatuakamau

Mistinatuakamau, “good large lake” in Naskapi, is the southern part of a long lake on the George River. The lake is also known as Mushuau Nipi, the lake of the treeless country, and its two sections are joined by a short passage. The surrounding interior was home to the Mushuau Innu, whose hunting grounds centred on the lake and the caribou that travelled through the region. Their routes connected this inland country with the Labrador coast.
