Rapid River (Churchill River tributary)
The Rapid River is a short river in central Saskatchewan, Canada, about 13 kilometres (8 mi) east of the community of Stanley Mission. It is part of the Churchill River drainage basin. The river is about 1,000 metres (3,281 ft) long and flows north from Iskwatikan Lake, which lies downstream from Lac la Ronge, over the Nistowiak Falls, one of the tallest in Saskatchewan, and the Fisher Rapids, to Nistowiak Lake on the Churchill River, which flows to Hudson Bay. The entire river is within Lac La Ronge Provincial Park.

gollark: There are a *lot* of RSS readers. I use Miniflux, which is web-based.
gollark: It's better for newsfeed-type things than email, since you can just host an XML file instead of mucking with getting your server to send emails somehow, and it's "pull" rather than "push" meaning you don't have to rely on the other end to unsubscribe you.
gollark: A decent amount of sites offer it, since a lot of blog platforms support it, even Reddit has RSS capability still, and there are some things to bridge website updates to RSS.
