		Long-distance transported erratics at the entry of the Saguenay River.
		Based on the glacial flow in the Saguenay area (determined from striaes, and other micro- forms), the limestone erratics originated from the Upper Saguenay area (Saint-Honore) or from the southern part of Lac Saint-Jean; similarly the anorthosite erratics are from the large anorthosite massif located in the Saguenay-Lac Saint-Jean area.
		This implies a Wisconsinan glacial flow to the SE from that area downstream the Saguenay Fjord (Tadoussac), andconsequently the existence of a dome and a regional ice divide located somewhere to the W or the NW of the Lac Mistassini basin.

		By the 1890s it was known that the Saguenay River dropped 300 feet within just 30 miles of its source, creating a large potential power in the lightly populated northeast.
		Moreover, raising the level of Lac-St Jean, out of which the Saguenay drains, could create a vast reservoir charged by a fan of sizable rivers such as the Mistassini and the Peribonka and increase the potential for development to hundreds of thousands of horsepower.
