The Wessonneau River flows north-east in the Mekinac Regional County Municipality in Mauricie, in Quebec, in Canada, on the west bank of the Saint-Maurice River. The watershed of the river is administered by: * Zec Wessonneau for the northern part of the basin; * Zec Chapeau-de-Paille and Zec du Gros-Brochet, which are located in the western part of the watershed; * Wildlife Reserve of Saint-Maurice, south of the river Wessonneau. == Geography == From the southwest, the river empties into the Saint-Maurice River at 500 meters downstream from the “Rivière-aux-Rats” bridge, built in 1980 to span the Saint-Maurice River. Its mouth is located at the opposite of the hamlet "Rivière-aux-Rats", which is on the east side of Saint-Maurice River, at 29.5 km ( by Route 155) south of Downtown La Tuque.〔Geographical audit conducted on January 2, 2014 by historian Gaétan Veillette (Saint-Hubert, QC) using the Google Map website and maps.〕 The altitude of the water at the confluence is 121 m. In its watershed, highest mountainous peak reaches up to 381 m. The mouth of the Wessonneau North River empties into the river Wessonneau about 10.2 km from the mouth of the latter. While the mouth of the "middle Wessonneau River" empties into the Wessonnneau North River about 5.3 km from the mouth of the latter. From the bridge of the "Rivière aux rats", a fork in the road heads west along the route of the river Wessonneau by the north shore. From the bridge, on three kilometers high mountains are bordering the north side of the road. Forestry was the main economic factor in this sector. 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「Wessonneau River」の詳細全文を読む スポンサード リンク
