Kokish River : ウィキペディア英語版 | Kokish River The Kokish River is a river on Northern Vancouver Island, flowing north into Beaver Cove.〔(BC Names/GeoBC entry "Kokish River" )〕 The community of Beaver Cove is near the river's mouth, as was the former logging camp of Englewood. The community of Kokish is also on Beaver Cove, but on its southeast shore away from the river-mouth.〔(BC Names/GeoBC entry "Kokish (community)" )〕 ==Name origin== Kokish is an adaptation of ''k'wagis'', meaning "notched beach", the name of a former village at the mouth of the river. Another meaning given by artist and chief Mungo Martin is that Kokish is a corruption of the Kwak'wala word, ''Gwegis'', for "place where river spreads".〔(BC Names/GeoBC entry "Kokish River" )〕
