Description

The S.S. St. Joseph on the Athabasca River.

  • Original caption: "
    The first of the "mission boats" built by the Oblates was the Saint-Joseph, built at the Nativity Mission on Lake Athabasca in 1893. The area covered by the Saint-Joseph included Lake Athabasca, the Athabasca River to Fort McMurray and the Slave River to Fort Fitzgerald. The Saint-Joseph also travelled to the Hudson's Bay Company post at Red River on the lower Peace River. The boat was obstructed from travelling further west on the Peace River by the presence of the Vermilion Chutes. Oblate travellers would have to portage the Chutes and travel further by transfer to another boat, such as the S.S. St. Charles.
