Hi, I was just wondering who the Mackenzie River was named by. 64.230.118.109 00:08, 25 February 2006 (UTC)megamon88

Does anyone know where the river will start to freeze over? Is it for the entire length? I ask because I wonder if any ice dams form on the river in the winter months.

Shouldn't this river be third longest since the Yukon River is over 3,500 kms in lenght?

[edit] Mackenzie dyke swarm

Is the Mackenzie dyke swarm near the Mackenzie River? Black Tusk 23:13, 14 August 2007 (UTC)

[edit] List of tributaries excised without explanation?

Someone removed the list of tributaries. But I don't see an explanation here as to why it was removed. Unless someone can offer an explanation -- I am going to restore this list. Geo Swan (talk) 21:57, 1 June 2008 (UTC)
