The White River (French: rivière White) is a tributary of Lake Superior in Thunder Bay District, Ontario, Canada.[2] It starts at Negwazu Lake and flows in a predominantly western direction to Lake Superior, passing through the Township of White River.
The White River has many stretches of whitewater and four waterfalls with some difficult portages, making the river suitable for advanced canoeists. The lower part of the river has occasional oxbows and meanders.[3] Among its tributaries are the Bremner,[4] Depew,[5] and Oskabukuta Rivers.[6] The river contains a diversity of fish species, including healthy walleye populations.[3]
