  • Physiographic Notes on Features in the Mackenzie Delta Area

    Open Access•J K Fraser•ARTICLE•Canadian Geographies /…•1956

    Evidence is presented to show that a group of knobby hills on coalescing alluvial fans along the Richardson Mountains is landslide debris rather than glacial deposit, Associated with the debris are pingo‐like features and lenses of ground ice. A heavy layer of silt over remnant snowbanks is attributed to wind deposition

  • Identification of Petitot's Riviere La Ronciere-le Noury

    Open Access•J K Fraser, James Fraser•ARTICLE•ARCTIC•1952

    Contains a study of explorations in the Horton and Hornaday River regions of northern Mackenzie District. Evidence is presented to suggest that the river discovered and mapped (excepting lower reaches) by the Oblate missionary Emile Petitot in 1868 is identical with the Hornaday. The latter, discovered by A.J. Stone in 1900 was explored only near its effluence into Darnley Bay. Recent mapping from aerial photographs show the source of the Hornada…

  • The Rediscovery of Petitot's Riviere La Ronciere‐le Noury

    Open Access•J K Fraser, James Fraser•ARTICLE•Canadian Geographies /…•1952

    The country between Great Bear Lake and the Arctic coast is drained by three long rivers, the Anderson, the Horton and the Hornaday. A map published in 1875 by Father Emile Petitot showed a river called La Roncière‐Le Noury, and its existence was doubted by later explorers. These doubts were based on the fact that no large river entered the sea where Petitot had marked it on the map. Evidence was advanced to support the opinion that the Roncière …
