Description From Owner:

Pouce Coupe - This unusual name of 'Cut Thumb' comes from a Sekani trapper nicknamed 'Pouce Coupé' by the French-Canadian voyageurs because he had lost a thumb in an accident with his gun. Simon Fraser mentions the Indian Pouce Coupé as early as 1806.
CUT THUMB CREEK, which flows into the Parsnip River, is also named after him.
