The map draws the full river. This route covers a section of it; the description says which.
The Causapscal River flows through peaceful wilderness with clear brown waters and moderate currents, in tranquil salmon country. With 4 rapids classified as EV-R1 to R2, this scenic route offers excellent opportunities to spot Atlantic salmon during their spawning runs. The river meanders through beautiful Appalachian landscapes with forested shores and pristine wilderness access.
The document describes 4. The map shows 21, because it only places rapids a national survey publishes a coordinate for. The two counts measure different things.

This table publishes no position for any rapid. Where a surveyor's note mentions a kilometre, those are their words quoted as written, and the figure was read off a scanned map: use it to follow their description, not to navigate. Most of these surveys were written in French.
