[edit] length

I measured the Yakoun's length using a tool on the online BC Basemap and did it at a small scale, so there's no way the 53km my measurement produced with a very rough line to the river is anywhere near the river's proper length; it's very twisty and would have taken too long to work out; so sinuous it may even be 100km long, for all I can see; I didn't ahve time to check terrain/topo maps but as i recall a lot of its lower length is through flatland forest/swamp (or waht was flatland forest...). Basemap's location-finder zooms the cursor not quite to teh shore of Masset Inlet; maybe it's actually a tributary of another named stream there, I'll checkj.
