Upper river course

The Missisquoi North River originates west of Lake Stukely and south of North Stukely. Two streams (coming from the north and the northwest) flow into Parker Lake (altitude: 246 m). Then the current descends on 1.2 km to the north shore of Lac d'Argent (length: 1.7 km; altitude: 246 m) that the current crosses south over its full length; this lake flows into the North Missisquoi river by a small bay south of the lake.

From this bay, the North Missisquoi River flows for 7.1 km south to the northeast shore of Trousers Lake (altitude: 239 m) that the current crosses towards the southwest on 1.5 km. This lake is fed by "Long Pond Lake" (length: 2.8 km; altitude: 245 m) which flows onto the east shore of Trousers Lake.
