The Beaver River is a river in the west of Thunder Bay District in Northwestern Ontario, Canada.[1] It is part of the Hudson Bay drainage basin, and is a right tributary of the Firesteel River.
The river begins at an unnamed muskeg and travels south, passes under the Canadian Pacific Railway transcontinental main line and Ontario Highway 17, then heads southwest, and reaches its mouth at the Firesteel River about west of the community of Upsala.
