A free-trader's establishment at west end of Rocky Mountain Portage, Hudson's Hope or Rocky Mountain Portage Fort being at the east end. Harmon was there in 1810, and does not speak of Cust's house, simply "the northwest end of Rocky Mountain Portage". It was on the left bank of Peace river in the cañon 56°N - 122°W. It is shown on map of Canada 35 miles to 1 inch, and Dawson map 1879 (No. 81). An old Hudson's Bay Co. post was located at west end of portage.
