geography

The Frenchman Ravine has its source in the Wimblew area at about 200  m above sea level and flows west. After a few hundred meters, it flows into the Pagua River from the right and east at Wimblew.

The springs arise from the same aquifer as the neighboring Frenchman Ravine to the north and the neighboring Buluku Ravine to the east, but which flows eastward directly into the Atlantic .
