Stories of a Distinguished Place
Edited by Morten Asfeldt and Bob Henderson
Pike's Portage is more than a trail from Great Slave Lake to Artillery Lake at the edge of the Barrens in the Northwest Territories. For years it was used by as an access point by Native Peoples, and as a transition point by intrepid explorers and adventurers. In the early 20th century, it was a trappers' right of passage. Today, in winter it carries hunters, and in summer only footprints of the most adventuresome canoe parties heading for the Thelon, Back, and Coppermine rivers.
