Batchawana River
The Batchawana River is a river in Algoma and Sudbury Districts of Ontario, Canada, which empties into Batchawana Bay on Lake Superior north of Sault Ste. Marie, Ontario. The name "Batchawana" is derived from an Ojibwe word meaning "turbulent waters". The Hudson's Bay Company established a fur trading post on the bay during the 19th century. North of Batchawana Bay is Pancake Bay, so named because fur traders travelling east from Fort William had only enough flour left to make pancakes.
