Abstract The Tatonduk River section is located in the Nation Arch, a wedge-shaped area in eastern Alaska bounded by the Alas-ka-Yukon Territory border and the Dawson, Tintina, and Glenn Creek fault complexes (Fig. 1). The Yukon River flows north through the western portion of this wedge. The Tatonduk River flows west from the Yukon Territory, joining the Yukon River 13 mi (21 km) north of the village of Eagle. Scheduled commercial air service is available to Eagle from Fairbanks, and there is road access to Eagle from May through September. Access to the Tatonduk River section is via riverboat or helicopter. There are no established trails into or within the Taonduk River valley. The high gradient and boulder bed of the river require a very shallow-draft boat with sufficient power to maintain control in the strong current. Shoaling near the mouth and multiple channels upstream demand skill in identification of the main channel. This region falls partly within the boundaries of Yukon-Charley National Rivers Preserve, supervised by National Park Service personnel based in Eagle, and by the Doyon Regional Corporation, based in Fairbanks. Current land management policies allow access to the Tatonduk River valley; however, written permission is advisable for fossil collection, and helicopter usage in specific areas and periods is restricted.

Data from Moore, (1989); Richards et al., (1994). (B) Location of Parkland, British Columbia, as well as three key Wabamun hydrothermal dolomite fields in west-central Alberta. Location of fields is superimposed on a map displaying first vertical derivative of aeromagnetic total field intensity, as well as major faults that define the eastern part of the Dawson Creek Graben Complex (includes Fort St. John and Hines Creek grabens). Note coincidence of basement magnetic anomalies with some northwest-southeast-trending Visean-Serpukhovian faults. This same trend is parallel with Tournaisian shear faults believed to be the conduits for hydrothermal fluids responsible for the chert reservoir at Parkland.

Superimposed on the accompanying regional Montney Isopach map are the outlines of the informally designated north, central and south Montney sub-basins, along with the major structural features within the area (after Davies, 1997a; Berger et al., 2008). These features include the eastern limit of the Rocky Mountain Fold and Thrust Belt which formed in response to the Cretaceous, Laramide Orogeny, and the outline of the Peace River Arch as defined by the edge of the Late Devonian Leduc Formation fringing reef complex. Also depicted are the traces of some of the major faults that comprise the Late Carboniferous Dawson Creek Graben Complex (Barclay et al., 1990; O’Connell et al., 1990).
