Grand Rapid Obstacles On Saskatchewan Exploration Voyage
The Assiniboine and Saskatchewan Exploring Expedition details the Grand Rapid as a major laborious barrier. Boats unload cargo then are tracked up the rapid with portage crews, afloat ballast, and reinforced lines as crews haul along limestone cliffs. The report weighs options for steam navigation and canal routes, noting favorable terrain for roads and future settlement near Cross Lake to Lake Winnipeg. It also records a Swampy Indian encampment aiding portage and a night camp on a gravel spit near Lake Winnipeg.
