Departing from Fort Chipewyan on Lake Athabasca on 3 June 1789, Mackenzie and his party travelled north by canoe through the river system that now bears his name, reaching Whale Island on the Arctic coast on 12 July, where ice and shallow water prevented further progress. The party returned to Fort Chipewyan on 12 September 1789.\u003c\/p\u003e\n\u003cp data-start=\"616\" data-end=\"848\" data-is-last-node=\"\" data-is-only-node=\"\"\u003eThis edition, edited and annotated by T.
