Sutherland River

The Sutherland River, also once known as the Beaver River, is a river in the area of Babine Lake in northeastern British Columbia, Canada. The river, which flows northwest into the southeast end of Babine Lake, is named for Joe Sutherland, a First Nations man from the Nautley Indian Reserve who accompanied a British Columbia Land Survey Party in 1914.

Part of the river's basin forms the Sutherland River Provincial Park and Protected Area.
