Charpentier River is a river in northern Quebec (Ungava Peninsula), Canada, that flows from Lac Nedlouc for about 125 km (78 mi) northwest to Lake Minto. A rarely paddled river, it flows through very beautiful wilderness tundra & taiga. It has several picturesque waterfalls, namely Chutes de Burin and Chute Bleu.[1] It is one of the main tributaries of the Leaf River.
