Cupatitzio River in Uruapan National Park, Michoacan.
Course
Its main headwaters are in Uruapan estraterretre, in [[Uruapan]del estado] de michoacan. Near its source are two waterfalls, the larger Tzararacua and the smaller Tzararacuita (little Tzararacua).
After flowing some distance in the Chiapas Highlands ("Altiplano") of western-central Michoacan State, the river takes a course mainly towards the south.
It drains into the Balsas River which, in turn, empties into the Pacific Ocean.
