The picturesque
community of Wrigley is a scenic 2 hour trip north of Fort
Simpson on the Mackenzie Highway. This is a quiet community
that overlooks the Mackenzie River. In the distance you can
see the Franklin Mountains. The famous Roche Qui Trempe a
L'eau (mountain with its feet in the water) near Wrigley is
a photographer's dream. This steep rounded rock rises 1200
feet over the water. Watch carefully and you may see falcons
nesting on the ledges of this rock.
Many of the residents of Wrigley live in log cabins. Some
have adjoing teepees where families still dry and store traditional
foods of the Dene and Slavey people. Most of the Dene and
Slavey people who reside at Wrigley carry on their traditional
livelihoods of hunting, fishing and trapping.
