The Canadian Red River Exploring Expedition - Great Falls on Little Dog River... 1858. Creator: Unknown
The Canadian Red River Exploring Expedition - Great Falls on Little Dog River, at Great Dog Portage, 1858. The Falls in the accompanying Sketch, by Mr. Fleming, assistant to Mr. Hind, lie some distance to the west of the beginning of the Great Dog Portage, one of the most formidable barriers on the canoe route between Lakes Superior and Winnipeg. The Great Dog Portage rises 468 feet above Little Dog Lake, into which the water, passing over the Falls...rushes with a wild, indescribable beauty from Great Dog Lake, north of the barrier just noticed. The difference in the level of Little and Great Dog Lakes is 347 feet, which is descended by the water of the connecting river in six successive leaps'. From "Illustrated London News", 1858

EDITORS COMMENTS
This print depicts the awe-inspiring Great Falls on Little Dog River, a formidable barrier during the Canadian Red River Exploring Expedition of 1858. The falls, skillfully captured by assistant artist John Arnot Fleming for the Illustrated London News, are located some distance to the west of the beginning of the Great Dog Portage. The portage, a significant obstacle on the canoe route connecting Lakes Superior and Winnipeg, rises 468 feet above Little Dog Lake. The water, as described in the accompanying text, rushes from Great Dog Lake, north of the barrier, with a wild, indescribable beauty, creating six successive leaps to descend the 347-foot difference in elevation between the two lakes. The dramatic scene showcases the raw power and majesty of nature, as the water cascades over the rocks and mountains, creating a breathtaking tourist attraction that continues to captivate visitors to this day. This historical print offers a glimpse into the past, showcasing the beauty and challenges of Canada's natural geography during the 19th century exploration era.
