Шаблон:Infobox river The Bras de Jacob Ouest (English: arm of Jacob West) is a tributary of the Bras de Jacob, flowing successively in the unorganized territory of Lac-Ministuk, in the Le Fjord-du-Saguenay Regional County Municipality, then in Saguenay, in the administrative region of Saguenay–Lac-Saint-Jean, in province from Quebec, to Canada. The course of the Bras de Jacob Ouest crosses the northwest part of the zec Mars-Moulin.
The small valley of the Bras de Jacob Ouest is served indirectly by the route 175 which passes on the west side and by the path of Lac-du-Bois-Joli which passes on the north shore of the lake Jacob. A few other secondary forest roads serve the valley of the Bras de Jacob Ouest, especially for forestry and recreational tourism activities.[1]
Forestry is the main economic activity in this valley; recreational tourism, second.
The surface of Bras de Jacob Ouest is usually frozen from the beginning of December to the end of March, however the safe circulation on the ice is generally done from mid-December to mid-March.
