Frontenac Lake (Milieu River)

The lake Frontenac has a length of 6.6 kilometres (4.1 mi), a maximum width of 1.9 kilometres (1.2 mi) and an altitude of 427 metres (1,401 ft). A peninsula detaches itself from the west shore, near the mouth of the dump (coming from the West) of Secondat Lake and stretches out on 1.1 kilometres (0.68 mi) towards the East, either towards the lake center. The northern part of the lake looks like a goalie hockey stick.

The mouth of Lake Frontenac is located at:

• 13.2 kilometres (8.2 mi) south of the mouth of the Milieu River (Normandin River) (confluence with Poutrincourt Lake);
• 28.1 kilometres (17.5 mi) South of the mouth of Poutrincourt Lake which is crossed by the Normandin River towards the North;
• 42.3 kilometres (26.3 mi) south of the mouth of Nicabau Lake whose southern part is crossed by the Normandin River;
• 34.3 kilometres (21.3 mi) south-west of the mouth of the Normandin River (confluence with Ashuapmushuan Lake[1]

The main hydrographic slopes adjacent to Lake Frontenac are:

• North side: Milieu River (Normandin River), Ressaut Lake, Poutrincourt Lake, Normandin River;
• East side: Palluau Lake, Maskoskanaw River, Marquette River, Ashuapmushuan River;
• South side: Galinée Lake, Patterson Lake, Maskoskanaw River, Berlinguet Lake, Berlinguet Creek;
• West side: Secondat Lake, Little Buade Lake, Normandin Lake (Normandin River), Normandin River.

The Maskoskanaw River empties into a bay on the east shore of Lake Frontenac, which runs through the North 4.4 kilometres (2.7 mi) to its mouth. From there, the current flows down the Milieu River (Normandin River) on the north, to the south shore of the Poutrincourt Lake, which the current crosses on 15.4 kilometres (9.6 mi) to the North.

Downstream from Poutrincourt Lake, the current flows northward on 15.6 kilometres (9.7 mi), forming a 2.0 kilometres (1.2 mi) eastward hook to South Bay of Nicabau Lake; then, 5.3 kilometres (3.3 mi), i.e. 18 kilometres (11 mi) north, then east across the southern part of Nicabau Lake (elevation: 386 metres (1,266 ft)). From there, the current flows south-east along the Normandin River on 38.7 kilometres (24.0 mi) to the northwestern shore of Ashuapmushuan Lake. Then, the current flows through the Ashuapmushuan River which flows to Saint-Félicien, Quebec on the west shore of Lac Saint-Jean.
