... that the Temagami River in
Ontario, Canada, is an outstanding water route with 20 sets of
whitewater rapids rated CI to CIII? Source: Ref. 6 (... protect outstanding recreational water routes / ... known for its concentration of novice to advanced white water paddling opportunities) and Ref. 3 (table of River Difficulty Rating)
The prose is long enough and is 5xed within the determined period. No copyvio was
observed. The hook is interesting but I need to know which of the sources support the portion regarding the rating? --

You're welcome P199. Ah, OK. Is "outstanding" some sort of designation? If so, can you present one more source making such a designation? --

See the small print after the hook above. The phrase "outstanding recreational water route" is taken from Ref. #6 (Crown Land Use Policy Atlas). This is not a designation but a descriptive term. Regards. P 1 9 9✉12:59, 7 October 2021 (UTC)reply

Mhhossein: The Crown Land Use Policy Atlas clearly passes as a RS. Why is another one needed? But if really necessary: Ref #5 (Temagami River Provincial Park Management Statement) also says that its "purpose ... is to protect outstanding recreational water routes". -- P 1 9 9✉12:56, 13 October 2021 (UTC)reply
