The Kipawa River (in French: ''Rivière Kipawa'') is a short river in western Quebec, Canada. It is mostly an undeveloped river but the larger lakes have dams, fishing camps, and cottages on their shores. The communities of Kipawa and Laniel are located on Lake Kipawa. Also much logging takes place within its watershed basin, which is consequently crisscrossed by many bush roads. Route 101 crosses the river at Laniel. The Kipawa River drops over the last from Lake Kipawa to its mouth which results in many whitewater rapids, making it popular with kayakers and canoeists. Since 1986, the Kipawa River Rally has been held annually over this stretch of the river. Its name is derived from the Anishnabe word "''Kebaouek''" meaning "at the narrows beyond which more water opens out".〔(【引用サイトリンク】url= http://www.algonquincanoe.com/paddling_routes.asp )〕 ==Significant lakes== (in downstream order) *Grassy Lake (Lac aux Foins) *Watson Lake *Wolf Lake (Lac des Loups) *Lac Sairs *Grindstone Lake *Hunter Lake *Lake Kipawa 抄文引用元・出典: フリー百科事典『 ウィキペディア(Wikipedia)』 ■ウィキペディアで「Kipawa River」の詳細全文を読む スポンサード リンク
