LAC LA BICHE From rugged beginnings, the hamlet of Lac La Biche has grown to become the region’s primary service centre. The settlement is one of the oldest in Alberta. Explorer David Thompson was the first recorded European to come here, leading to a vital fur trade route across “Portage La Biche.”
