Naococane

The country around Lake Naococane lies northeast of Lake Mistassini, near the northern Otish uplands. The lake's many islands rise from a great mass of glacial deposits, partly submerged after the ice withdrew. Its waters feed Lake Nichicun and the headwaters of La Grande Rivière; to the south lie the sources of the Eastmain. Both rivers eventually reach James Bay by separate courses across the northern interior.
