	Bonnechere River
		A scenic stretch of the Bonnechere River known historically as the "Little Bonnechere" connects Bonnechere Provincial Park, on the shores of Renfrew County's Round Lake, with Algonquin Park to the north.
		The Bonnechere valley is part of the Ottawa-Bonnechere graben, a large block of land thrust downward along parallel faultlines.
		The river itself meanders through sand and gravel left behind by glacial meltwaters that followed the faultlines.

	The OTTAWA RIVER "Great Canadian Rivers"
		But the frontier economy of the Ottawa River watershed, with its unlimited natural resources, loose regulation, and cheap labour pool, also created a climate in which energetic entrepreneurs could quickly increase their control of the trade.
		Names can be misleading: the Ottawa River bears the name of a First Nations tribe that traded on the waterway, but lived far to the west, first in the Georgian Bay region of Lake Huron and then in the regions of Lake Superior and Lake Michigan.
		Their wilderness home was remote, but not completely isolated; although they avoided settlement in the St. Lawrence valley for fear of Iroquois attacks, they enjoyed a brisk interior-network trading relationship with the Tadoussac-based Montagnais to the east (from whom they received European goods) and the Huron, Nipissing, and Ottawa to the west.

		The start of the Bonnechere where it exits McKaskill is choked with dead wood, as was most of the next 250 m as the infant river drops fairly steeply to a marsh.
		Here the river was wider and deeper that where we had left it, and easy paddling.
		We had the option on continuing down the river for another 3 km or so, and then tackling about 11 km of portages, none of which (except for the last 2 km) had been cleared in at least 10 years.
