Course
editThe river begins at an unnamed lake in geographic Somerville Township in Minden Hills, about 1.5 kilometres (0.93 mi) south of the community of Buller, and flows south to Corben Lake where it passes into geographic Somerville Township, Kawartha Lakes. It exits Corben lake at its southern tip, continues south, passes under Kawartha Lakes Road 45, and reaches Four Mile Lake, leaving that lake at the south. It turns southwest, flows under Ontario Highway 35, and reaches its mouth at the northeast side of Balsam Lake, about 4.7 kilometres (2.9 mi) north of the community of Rosedale.[1][2]
