Wapiskau

The Wapiskau River runs through a chain of lakes in the northern forest, towards the Reindeer River and the Churchill watershed. Brabant, White and Steephill lakes lie along its course, where water passages and short stretches of land connect the lake country. Its name is of Cree origin, reflecting the people whose homeland includes these woods and waterways. To the north, the much larger Reindeer Lake feeds the river of the same name.
