Obonga–Ottertooth Provincial Park

Obonga–Ottertooth Provincial Park in northwestern Ontario protects about a 100-kilometre corridor of lakes and waterways linking Obonga Lake and Kashishibog Lake, and serves as an important backcountry connection among neighboring protected rivers and the Lake Nipigon basin. Its rugged boreal landscape includes rocky hills, sand and gravel deposits, major lakes, and a height-of-land where drainage divides between the Arctic and Atlantic watersheds. The park is significant for wildlife, especially woodland moose, and is managed for remote, self-sufficient recreation rather than visitor services. Its isolated Ottertooth Creek canyon is a difficult canoe passage known for rapids, waterfalls, and steep gorges, and may have been traversed by Edward Umfreville in 1784.
