Am writing today to tell you that the lift will stop on the evening of Sunday t ue 18th. At least that is the plan at the moment. It gives us just two more weekends and we have a great deal of snow to use up in tnat "ime. The last few days we have had some of the 'rest skiing of this winter, end it is snowing hard here tode.y.

What a story that is, and what a life he has had. No doubt he is one of the real great pioneers of the air. Now I am looking forward to your own story about Wilkins. For the fUn of it I am enclosing an un- expected letter from the Seppa.las. Having had nothing to do with the whole thing I felt embarrassed about that. However, they certainly appreciated seeing Alaska once more. It must be great fUn to be able to do thing s like that for such people as the little Viking . Had a telephone call from Mc.Laughlin in Stratton, and realize t hat you have stuck my neck out again. I accepted t he invitation, however, and suppose I can think of a few word.s . to say about skiing .It will be fun to see t he place • Once you are tied up in one place you rarely see the others. Let us hope for a l ittle snow so t hey can s et off to a good st art. We have all ice here now. See you soon.

    Mount Assiniboine Park Management Plan Part of the Canadian Rocky Mountain Parks World Heritage Site November 2012 Cover Page Photo Credit: Christian Kimber (Park Ranger) This document replaces the direction provided in the Mount Assiniboine Provincial Park Master Plan (1989). Mount Assiniboine Park Management Plan Approved by: November 15, 2012 ______________________________ __________________ Tom Bell Date Regional Director, Kootenay Okanagan Region BC Parks November 15, 2012 ______________________________ __________________ Brian Bawtinheimer Date Executive Director, Parks Planning and Management Branch BC Parks Plan Highlights The management vision for Mount Assiniboine Park is that the park continues to be an international symbol of the pristine scenic grandeur of British Columbia’s wilderness and the recreational enjoyment it offers. Key elements of the management plan include strategies to: Implement a zoning plan that enhances the emphasis on Mount Assiniboine Park’s value both as a component of a UNESCO World Heritage Site (which protects significant examples of Canadian Rocky Mountain ecosystems) and as the location of an internationally recognized wilderness recreation feature associated with heritage structures from the earliest days of facility-based backcountry tourism in the Canadian Rockies. Approximately 86% of the park is zoned as Wilderness Recreation, 13% is zoned as Nature Recreation, less than 1% is zoned as Special Feature and less than 0.01% is zoned as Intensive Recreation. Develop an ecosystem management strategy that coordinates management of vegetation and wildlife in the park with that of adjacent protected areas under other agencies’ jurisdiction and with activities on adjacent provincial forest lands. This includes a proposal to prepare a vegetation management strategy to maintain or restore natural disturbance regimes (i.e., insects, disease and fire) wherever possible.
