There can be no reasonable doubt that Fidler was the first white man to explore the Churchill from Frog Portage to the bay. He is equally entitled Digitized by VjOOQIC EXPLORATION FROM HUDSON BAY 185 to the credit of exploring Seal River from its mouth to the height of land leading to South Indian Lake on the Churchill, as well as Etawney Lake and the river which drains its waters into Hudson Bay ; though Hearne was on the Seal River in 1770, and, according to Arthur Dobbs, one Frost of the Hud...son's Bay Company "travelled a considerable way in the country north- westward of the River of Seals " some time about 1730. Taylor's map also proves that Fidler explored the route by way of Reindeer Lake from the Churchill to Lake Athabaska. The map shows Deer River leading north into Deer Lake and Wollaston Lake, then Hatchet Lake, Porcupine River, Black Lake, and Stone River to Lake Athabasca or Athabaska. Here, as on the Saskatchewan and the Athabaska, Fidler and Thompson were independently working over the same field.
