How to read this map

The Finlay River is about 420 km (261 mi) long and drains a basin of about 43,000 km² (16,600 sq mi). Its average discharge is about 600 m³/s (21,200 cu ft/s). It flows into Williston Lake. Tributaries include Kwadacha River and Akie River.

The highlighted blue line is the course of the Finlay River as mapped by Natural Earth.

Greens show lower elevations; tan and brown show higher land, with pale tones toward the highest terrain. Shadows emphasize the slopes, and vertical relief is exaggerated so landforms are easier to read. Dashed lines show country borders, and fine dashed lines show state or province borders.

The relief uses Terrain Tiles (SRTM, GMTED2010 and ETOPO1 elevation data). Rivers, lakes, borders and the course of the Finlay River come from Natural Earth, and the figures on this page from Wikidata. Natural Earth draws features at a small scale, so the line is a guide to where the Finlay River is, not a surveyed boundary.
