Shaganappi Trail is named for the Shaganappi Point downstream and across the river from its southern terminus, which had the name since the 1870s.

Step-by-step explanation:

Shaganappi is a Cree word referring to cords that were made from rawhide, which was the material settlers used on their wagons.
