The Methye Portage or Portage La Loche in northwestern Saskatchewan was one of the most important portages in the old fur trade route across Canada. The 19 km (12 mi) portage connected the Mackenzie River basin to rivers that ran east to the Atlantic. It was reached by Peter Pond in 1778 and abandoned in 1883 when steamboats began running on the Athabasca River with links to the railroad. It ranks with Grand Portage as one of the two most important and difficult portages used during the fur trade era.

  • Portage La Loche (en langue crie : Portage Methye), situé dans le nord de la province de la Saskatchewan au Canada, fut un important poste de traite de fourrure, de la fin du XVIIIe siècle à la seconde moitié du XIXe siècle. (fr)
  • El portaje o porteo Methye (del inglés: Methye Portage) o portaje La Loche (Portage La Loche) fue uno de los porteos más importantes de la antigua ruta del comercio de pieles a través de Canadá. Se encuentra localizado en el noroeste de la actual provincia de Saskatchewan y permite enlazar la cuenca del río Mackenzie con los ríos que discurren hacia el este hasta el Atlántico. El primer occidental que se conoce que lo usó fue Peter Pond en 1778 y el porteo fue abandonado en 1883, cuando comenzaron a navegar en el río Athabasca barcos de vapor, lo que permitió el enlace con el ferrocarril. El Methye rivalizó con el Grand Portage como una de los dos porteos más importantes y difíciles utilizados durante la época del comercio de pieles. (es)
