river in the Northwest Territories and Nunavut, Canada
The Thelon River (Inuktitut: Akilinik, lit. "on the other side") stretches 900 kilometres (560 mi) across northern Canada. Its source is Whitefish Lake in the Northwest Territories, and it flows east to Baker Lake in Nunavut. The Thelon ultimately drains into Hudson Bay at Chesterfield Inlet.
