	Quebec Fiord a Natural Marvel
		The Saguenay River runs through one of the continent's great geological wonders, a 100-kilometre-long, glacier-ripped gash in Quebec's landscape northeast of Quebec City.
		The river runs deep, to 270 metres, before rising to a scant 25 metres at the fiord's mouth beside the town of Tadoussac.
		In a fascinating bit of water dynamics, the relatively warm, fresh waters of the Saguenay River lie atop the frigid saltwater of the St. Lawrence inside the fiord.

	The Atlas of Canada - Rivers
		Runoff is that part of precipitation that flows toward the rivers or streams on the ground surface or within the soil (subsurface runoff or interflow).
		The discharge of a stream or river is derived from Canadian water level measurements at the furthest-downstream gauging station, and is converted to streamflow discharge in cubic feet per second or cubic metres per second.
		The river in Canada with the greatest annual discharge is the St. Lawrence River at 9 850 cubic metres per second.

	Rivers Foundation Statement 1
		The Rivers Foundation considers that the natural resources of state-owned property, be it the forests, water power or wind power, belong to the community.
		The stance taken by the Rivers Foundation in favour of the ownership and public development of energy resources is not, for all that, a blank cheque for Hydro-Quebec.
		It postpones the aquatic reserve project on the river Ashuapmushuan which was to be the first in Quebec, and puts it in danger...

	Echoes from the Past
		Since the rivers in the Saguenay-Lake-Saint-Jean system converge towards Lake Saint-Jean, this body of water is like a crossroads in the heart of a vast communication network of rivers.
		Hunting intensified to the point that animal populations were exhausted, while at the same time the Ilnus of the Saguenay region became increasingly dependent for their survival on European goods, distributed through the posts and missions that were established in the region.
		Posts built on the Chicoutimi, Ashuapmushuan and Metabetchouan (1676-1880) rivers testify to the growth of the fur trade in the area in the 17th and 18th centuries.

	GIS/EM4 - Modeling submerged macrophytes in fluvial environment using 2D physical habitat simulation
		In the context of global climatic changes and discharge regulation, it is imperative to understand and quantify the impact of water level fluctuations on the distribution and biomass of submerged plants.
		However, field data suggest that within the Saint-Lawrence River and particularly in Lake Saint-François (Morin and Leclerc 2000), abiotic factors control macrophyte habitat and determine a large portion of their spatial distribution and biomass.
		Bidimensional models developed for river and coastal hydraulics calculate the abiotic factors with sufficient precision at all points of the area modeled, even under transitory conditions.

	CROSS-CANADA TOUR: A Year Long Adventure - The Ashuapmushuan River, PQ
		We finally canoed the Ashuapmushuan: a river we discovered a few years back while driving through the area and whose name took us over a year to be able to pronounce and remember (Ash-wap-moosh-wan).
		As with any river trip, each outing is unique depending on the water levels and this trip would likely have been very different had the water been at its normal level.
		Our last day on the river was a nice way to end any river trip: short and calm but with a few good rapids for excitement (but nothing too challenging for our tired bodies).

		But within a few years the water of the Rupert River may be diverted north to the Eastmain River, then dammed to produce electricity, all but ceasing to flow.
		Because of its remoteness and rapids, the Rupert River is almost mythical to whitewater paddlers, and Henry and Vitrella wanted to canoe it before it disappeared.
		The group crossed Lac Mistissini and followed the Natastan and Marten Rivers past lakes Wabistan and Weakwaten, then portaged their canoes and gear to the Rupert.

		At the time, the Mistassini was a much less traveled river, and it turned out to be an excellent canoe trip of about 125 miles from our put-in on Lac Marielle.
		The Mistassini trip was one of those rivers where we had virtually no information on the river, other than being told it was "a good trip".
		Basically, all that we knew from studying topo maps was that the river dropped a little over 650 feet in the first 55 miles and that there was a very large set of falls at about the 40 mile mark.

	Canadian Canoe Routes :: View topic - Ashuapmushuan River advice
		We had friends that ran it last year and ran every rapid except the manditory portage at 80-100 and found the river pretty straight forward...we did it at 600 and walked a few end sections of the main 4...not that what we walked wasn't runnable...just beyond our comfort zone on that day....
		If there is a spot where you knw there isn't another site for awhile I personally have never met river trippers that would be offended if you asked to set up with them......these sites are pretty big and will accomidate several tents.
		I think with adding another river it would be a fantastic trip and you are in a great area to do that.
