| 释义 |
The Raush River is a tributary of the Fraser River in British Columbia, Canada. It drains a watershed of approximately {{convert|100,000|ha}} on the eastern flanks of the Cariboo Mountains, a sub-range of the Columbia Mountains.[1] The river joins the Fraser near the community of Dunster in the Robson Valley. The river's name is the result of a transcription error; it was originally called the Rivière au Shuswap, this was recorded on some maps as R.auSh., which then became Raush on official maps.[2] Its source is the Raush Glacier, and major tributary creeks include Black Martin and Quanstrom. Two areas of the river are protected: the Lower Raush Protected Area protects {{convert|1279|ha}} near the river's mouth, while the Upper Raush Protected Area covers {{convert|5582|ha}} of its upper reaches.[3] More than 50 kilometers of the river are navigable, and are used by kayakers, canoeists, and jetboaters.[4] References1. ^{{cite web|title=Raush River watershed|url=http://www.fraserheadwaters.org/raush.html|publisher=Fraser Headwaters Alliance|accessdate=1 June 2013}} 2. ^{{cite book|last=Akrigg|first=GPV|title=British Columbia place names|year=1998|publisher=UBC Press|location=Vancouver, B.C.|isbn=9780774806367|page=224 |url=https://books.google.com/books?id=9IP4V-Hyt-4C&pg=PA224|author2=Helen B.
