Pinguisibi is the Ojibwa name for the Sand River (pingui – “fine white sand”; sibi – “river”). The Sand River was a route used by the ancient Ojibwa, who lived on the East shore of Lake Superior for at least 2,000 years, as they traveled between their winter camp inland and their summer camp near the shore.
The Sand River is in the north part of Algoma District in Northeastern Ontario. It is a tributary of Lake Superior, and its entire course lies within Lake Superior Provincial Park. The river is named after the sand bar formed across its mouth.
The Sand River begins at Sand Lake. It leaves the lake south over Sand Lake Dam then flows south where it heads over Calwin Falls. The river continues south over Lady Evelyn Falls. It then heads southwest, descends a series of low cascades, passes under Highway 17 and reaches its mouth at Lake Superior.
