Vuosjärvi is a medium-sized lake of Finland in northern Central Finland, Kannonkoski and Viitasaari. The water flows from Lake Kivijärvi throgh Hilmo Power Station and the water continues to the Huopanankoski rapids. Near the power station there are Hilmonjoki rapids, too.[1] The lake is quite shallow and good for fishing lake forells and zanders.[2][3]
