A historical catalogue of seismic events recorded within the vicinity of the Mackenzie Mountains protected landscape.
Explore a structured collection of historical earthquake records associated by epicentre distance with the boundaries of Nááts'ihch'oh National Park Reserve. This catalogue provides data on past seismic events, including event dates, magnitude readings, and relative proximity to the diverse terrain of the Mackenzie Mountains. The information is designed for geographic reference and historical context, offering a clear record of local seismic activity documented within this remote Canadian wilderness.
A Mackenzie Mountains wilderness reserve named for a porcupine-quill mountain sacred to the Shúhtaot'ine
Nááts'ihch'oh National Park Reserve is a Canadian national park reserve in the Northwest Territories, protecting a remote and rugged section of the upper South Nahanni River watershed within the Mackenzie Mountains. The reserve covers 4,850 square kilometres of boreal forest, alpine tundra, and mountainous terrain, established in December 2014 as the eighth national park reserve in Canada's system. The park takes its name from Nááts'ihch'oh, also known as Mount Wilson, a distinctive peaks whose Dene name translates to standing like a porcupine quill, a reference to its sharp pointed shape that the Shúhtaot'ine (Mountain Dene) consider to have great spiritual powers. The reserve adjoins Nahanni National Park Reserve to the south but is managed as a separate protected area, reflecting the distinct cultural claims of the Sahtu Dene and Métis peoples of the Tulita District who have long valued this landscape for hunting and resource gathering.
Examine Nááts'ihch'oh National Park Reserve events by distance
Nááts'ihch'oh National Park Reserve’s collection relates reported epicentres to its Northwest Territories boundary through calculated distance, keeping seismic records distinct from Mackenzie Mountains, river watersheds, and boreal forest. Dates, magnitudes, depths, localities, sources, and park distances enable historical comparison without asserting landscape effects, current risk, or recurrence.
This page describes catalogued earthquakes associated with the park by epicentre location and distance. It does not establish causation, assess current danger, or predict future earthquakes.
