Natuak

Natuak is a long, quiet widening of the Rivière aux Mélèzes in the northern interior. The river is interrupted by many rapids elsewhere, but here its waters spread into a narrow lake. Naskapi speakers call it Natwakami, the great lake beside the river; Inuit know it as the little lake of the great river. Downstream the Mélèzes joins the Caniapiscau to form the Koksoak, which reaches Ungava Bay.
