"Very cloudy, and a few passing showers. Had to wait this morning until the sun was about 2 hours high to allow the fog to clear off before running the rapids. As the water is this year in a good state, there was only one boat broken, but 23 packs got wet. Two more boats broke in course of the day, but nothing wet. Drifted all night. #Saskatchewan River.

"Indeed, we find all our canoes too much laden to proceed without getting damaged in such strong rapids as we have passed today, and they have so often rubbed on the rocks in them, that we were obliged to put ashore at half past 5 pm and have them gummed afresh. Passed Riviere a Baptiste about half past 3 o'clock. Picard and Nipisingue, two of the Rocky Mountain freemen, took leave of us this morning... #CanadaHistory #HistoricJourney #Voyageurs #Voyaging
