DAVID THOMPSON THINGS
Come In and Visit an International Treasure
The History of Rocky Mountain
House -Is a mixture of truth, legend, and
tales where sometimes the truth far outstrips the legends. It is the story of Rocky Mountain House ,
of its great fur trade history, and of David
Thompson, arguably the greatest geographer the world has ever known. The
purpose of this website is to promote David Thompson and all things related to
him including
aboriginal impacts, new discoveries, life at the Rocky Mountain House forts , and
Thompson's treks through the mountain passes. There
is much history here. It is the sweeping story of the great North Saskatchewan
River and the men and women who passed our way. David Thompson is one of
Canada's great figures and his marriage to Charlotte
Small for 57 years is one of our endearing love stories.
In 2007 Canada commemorated
Thompson's trek through the Howse Pass .
Enjoy the great
North Saskatchewan River and the Confluence of the Clearwater River as I take you on a journey through time
and to places that Thompson and his
voyageurs traversed .Click on
the links to explore, re-discover and
relive the fascinating world of David Thompsonand the fur trade. Come
and visit the Play
fort at the National
Historic Site 5 miles from Rocky Mountain House. This is a live web and
will be added to regularly.
