There are a few places online that you can read several of the explorers and HBC men's journals.
The museum in Winnipeg keeps all the HBC records and info.
Some of the websites I go to to read for free are:

Here's an example. This a a short read about a guy that went up the North Sask river and explored Modeste creek by Drayton Valley in the 1870's. The guy has to eat his dogs and barely makes it back to ft. Edmonton.

Here is Rev. Rundle's book for free online. The mid 1800's. He was around central Alberta.
