Sunday River (Osgood River tributary)

The river, once a strong sinuosity, has a length of about after linearization. Its basin has an area of approximately . Its bed of gravel has a depth varying from and a width of . The edges suffer from frequent erosion. The river is then diverted from its course, and the new meanders must be linearized again every three years. Also, the bed must be periodically freed from gravel deposits due to erosion. The river is rich in brook trout, but linearization work has compromised the integrity of the habitat. == Toponymy ==

The name of the Sunday River appears on a 1925 map, but the name probably comes from the construction of Craig Road around 1809. Due to a lack of local manpower, the Governor James Henry Craig made build the way by the military. The latter camped on Sundays near the stream, hence the English name "Sunday River". The toponym was formalized on December 17, 1993. == See also ==
