  • 5.8 kilometres (3.6 mi) to the northwest in the Addington Parish, collecting the waters of the "One Mile Brook" (coming from the North) to the confluence of the Popelogan River (coming from the North). Note: This junction is located in the upper part of Crooked Rapids;
  • 0.3 kilometres (0.19 mi) westward until McDougalls Brook (coming from the southwest);
