The Tuchodi River is a stream in the Northern Rocky Mountains of northern British Columbia, Canada. The river flows through the Northern Rocky Mountains Provincial Park in a northeasterly direction to the Muskwa River. Its name comes from Slavey words that mean "place of large water", probably a reference to the two lakes where the river widens. ==Course== The Lloyd George Icefield around Mount Lloyd George in 1998 covered over . The Kwadacha and Lloyd George glaciers drain the icefield to the east. The icefield is bounded by the Warneford River and the Tuchodi River. The headwaters of the Tuchodi feed the West and East Tuchodi lakes. West Tuchodi Lake is formed where an alluvial fan caused by glacial action blocks the flow of the river. East Tuchodi Lake is formed where the river is blocked by sand and gravel debris at the mouth of Joplin Creek. The small river continues after the lakes to the Muskwa River, flowing fast through braided channels in a bed made of glacial rocks, gravel and sand. Tuchodi Peak named after the river. 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「Tuchodi River」の詳細全文を読む スポンサード リンク
