Moose Ponds

Moose Ponds

The Moose Ponds are an expansion of the South Nahanni River just below its headwaters and are the starting point for 50 km of virtually continuous Class II - Class IV whitewater in Canada. This stretch of river is known locally as the Rock Gardens.[1] The ponds are mostly within the Northwest Territories, however a small portion of the largest and westernmost of the ponds does enter the Yukon.
