This manuscript was written by my father John Campbell after completing a trip down the Blackstone and Peel Rivers in the Yukon Territory in Northern Canada. It is the only river in the north that goes west to east and is featured in the February 2014 edition of the National Geographic. To the best of our knowledge Dad and his companions were the first group to do this entire trip. The manuscript was found in my grandfather's house in Scotland by my cousin, Shena Mclelland, and her husband Ken McClelland who kept it for several years. When I was visiting them in the summer of 2013 they brought it out and asked me if I knew what it was. To my amazement it was this manuscript. Rupert Plummer, married to Shena's sister Teresa, scanned it for me and I transcribed it into its current format. To the best of my ability I kept Dad's formatting as he wrote it other than changing a few spelling mistakes, eliminating hyphened words and breaking up a few paragraphs to make them more readable. I added this note, Table of Contents and the Appendix but otherwise kept it as close to its original form as I could. Dad had pages of text then a page of pictures as shown with his maps below.
