Scope and content
This file consists of one journal comprised of 21 black and white photographs (N-2002-005: 0218 to 0238) and accompanying narrative dated 1924. The journal describes a six-week surveying trip where Norman Robinson was hired to guide a Dominion Land Survey team from Ottawa led by Mr. [John] Russell. The team traveled by dogsled from Fort Smith to Fort Resolution and across Great Slave Lake to Fort Rae and were stranded on Hardisty Island during break-up. They were rescued by a Mr. Blanchet, another Land Surveyor. In addition, there is a short account of a summer survey expedition to map Artillery, Clinton, Colden, Aylmer and McKay Lakes in the Barren Lands at the east end of Great Slave Lake. The photographs primarily document travel by dog team and winter camping activities.
