Blind River (Ontario)
The 883rd longest river in the world
The Blind River is a river in Algoma District in Northeastern Ontario, Canada. The river is in the Great Lakes Basin and is a tributary of Lake Huron. The Blind River Provincial Park is a waterway park protecting the river, its banks, and the lakes along its way from its headwaters at Stone Lake to Matinenda Lake. Additionally, it includes the streams and lakes that make up the Flack Lake Figure Eight and the Dunlop Lake–Mace Lake Canoe Routes. It was established in 2004 and is meant for canoe camping, boating, fishing, hunting and wildlife/nature watching. Features in the park include wetlands, large islands, a scenic canyon and waterfalls at the inlet to Matinenda Lake. The park is regionally significant due to its cold water aquatic environments and its headwater protection function. It borders the Matinenda Provincial Park to the South. It is a non-operating park, meaning that there are no services. The only facilities are backcountry campsites.
