Patchepawapoka
Patchepawapoka is a Cree name borne by a river and lake in the lowlands west of James Bay. The river reaches a coast fringed by wide marshes, between the Ekwan and Lakitusaki rivers. In the surrounding lowlands, Cree families moved inland in winter to hunt caribou in the forest. As the animals migrated in spring, hunters could use fences and snares where their paths crossed frozen rivers.
