La Loche River (Saskatchewan)

Two kilometres from the mouth of the La Loche River lies the old site of Bull's House (56°09′33.8″N 109°07′16″W / 56.159389°N 109.12111°W / 56.159389; -109.12111) .

[2] Bull's House was an outpost of the Hudson's Bay Company during the fur trade.

A century later in 1895 according to Father Penard of the La Loche mission there were six families living there.

During periods of high water that flooded fields at Bull's House hay was cut a few miles away at Hay Point (56°8′0″N 109°2′3″W / 56.13333°N 109.03417°W / 56.13333; -109.03417) on the east side of Peter Pond Lake for the animals.

Shown on the map are the early trading posts of the North West Company and the Hudson's Bay Company situated on the south west side of Lac La Loche.
