Wrigley, Northwest TerritoriesWrigley is a community of about 170 people in Canada's Northwest Territories. (Postal Code X0E 1E0) Wrigley is located on the east bank of the Mackenzie River, just below its confluence with the Wrigley River and about 466 miles northwest of Yellowknife. Originally situated at Fort Wrigley, the community relocated to its present location in 1965, because it was more easily accessible. Among the Dene and Slavey people who live there, Wrigley is known as Tthedzeh Koe, meaning "Clay Place." The population continues to maintain a traditional lifestyle, trapping, hunting, and fishing.
