Geography edit

From the confluence of the Upsalquitch Southeast River, Upsalquitch river flows:

  • 5.8 kilometres (3.6 mi) to the northwest in the Addington Parish, collecting the waters of the "One Mile Brook" (coming from the North) to the confluence of the Popelogan River (coming from the North). Note: This junction is located in the upper part of Crooked Rapids;
  • 0.3 kilometres (0.19 mi) westward until McDougalls Brook (coming from the southwest);
  • 1.1 kilometres (0.68 mi) to the northwest across the "Crooked Rapids" until Reids Gulch (coming from the North);
  • 7.2 kilometres (4.5 mi) to the Northwest to South Two Brooks (coming from the southwest);
  • 4.0 kilometres (2.5 mi) to the northwest, to the limit of the Eldon Parish, New Brunswick;

Lower course of the river (22.0 kilometres (13.7 mi))

  • 3.0 kilometres (1.9 mi) to the Southwest, until Boland Brook (from the southwest);
  • 4.0 kilometres (2.5 mi) to the west, then north to the boundary of the Addington Parish, New Brunswick;
  • 1.3 kilometres (0.81 mi) westward in the Addington Parish, New Brunswick, forming a curve to the north, up to the limit of Eldon Parish, New Brunswick;
  • 3.3 kilometres (2.1 mi) westward to the railway bridge. Note: This track follows the course of Grog Brook (south side) and Meadow Brook (north side);
  • 8.3 kilometres (5.2 mi) to the northwest, to the bridge of the route 17 located in the hamlet of Robinsonville;

Upsalquitch River empties into a river curve on the south bank of the Restigouche River; the latest defines in this sector the border between New Brunswick and Quebec. Upsalquitch Island which is located at the confluence of the Upsalquitch River, faces the Harmony camp. This confluence is located at 1.8 kilometres (1.1 mi) downstream of "Greens Island".
