View north from the high banlts of the Peace River at Fort St. John, showing the islands at a stage of low water in the river. In tliree hundred miles there are some two hundred islands wooded with spruce and pine ALONG PEACE RIVER By Pliny E. Goddard THE Peace River was first brought to the notice of the world by Alexander Mackenzie. Not satisfied with following to the Arctic Ocean the river which bears his name, he went up the Peace River, crossed the Rocky Mountains and made his way to the Pacific Ocean which he reached in September, 1793. The previous winter he had spent at Fort MacLeod, built for his convenience and afterwards contin- ued as a trading post. Fort MacLeod is located on the north side of Peace River six miles above Peace River Crossing and nearly opposite the mouth of Smoky River. From that time until 1879 trade goods were brought to Fort MacLeod from Montreal or York Factory on Hudson Bay in canoes or York boats. In 1878 however, a road was cut from Lesser Slave Lake to Peace River Cross- ing, a distance of ninety miles, and the trade route was changed. The goods were taken up the north branch of the Saskatchewan River on steamers to Edmonton, then by Red River carts drawn by oxen to Athabasca Landing,
Text Appearing After Image:
