Tukuk-OS🌊 Sans Sault Rapids
Canada · Americas · 65.70°N, 128.80°W
The Sans Sault Rapids are a navigational impediment on Canada's Mackenzie River, in the Northwest Territories. The river narrows, and takes a tight turn north, near the river's confluence with the Mountain River, near mile 630. Barry Gough, in his account of explorer Alexander Mackenzie's transit of the river, recounted how Mackenzie's guides described the rapids as "the most difficult, dangerous stretch of the river to canoe." However, he found that his party was able to transit the rapids, and avoid a tedious portage, after all.
