Varsity Outdoor Club Journal / / r VOLUME XXXIII 1990 The University of British Columbia Vancouver, Canada AN INTERVIEW WITH C.S. BUNGI The Varsity Outdoor Club Journal (VOCJ) interviews CS. Bungi, the legendary and mysterious founding member of the VOC. VOCJ: Do you remember Longhike? C.S.: Longhike? VOCJ: Remember? It was back before 24921 papers, 2379 exams, 87,721.36 classes (never could get to that Monday morning class on time), 109 trips (63 of which were bushwhacks), and 8327.6 cinnamon buns (dropped a few) and 75 baseball games (Eric). CS.: Oh that Longhike! Who could forget: over 100 people, the Rockschool invasion of Smoke Bluffs (spearheaded by Andy), guitars, exploding stereo, tossing green linguini, awesome pancakes (food by Fern, thanks), meeting new friends in the hot tubl!! and getting involved with the VDS. VOCJ: Did you get to Leavenworth? CS.: Yeah, you folks are crazy! One party, led by Mr. Headlamp and All Night Eric, climbed ‘til 3:00 AM and missed a Thanksgiving BBQ dinner for 30 (sounds like a Pacheco trip). There were too many cobs of corn, too many yams, too much salad and too many beer for dinner, but (sorry Eric, Celeste, Duhane and Craig) we ate it all! Can’t forget climbing over our heads, swimming in Icicle Creek, tent hopping (Ken), the SWRCC and a couple of close shaves with Don. Good time that. VOCJ: And Glacier School? CS.: I could hardly find it! Two days in waist deep snow and we never even saw a glacier. The instructors pitched in and helped carry Chrystal’s wardrobe and then racing around trying to set up camp before the storm hit. The best part was watching Tanya, Chrystal and Kathleen put up their tent ‘I though you brought the poles?”. Then I got stuck “on the other side”. VOCJ: You met the Squamish Highway Rockslide, did you? CS.: Indeed I did, during the Halloween Party at Mike’s place. The Squamish Highway Landslides won first prize. Beer, Andy in lycra, beer, Eric as a baseball (or something like that), beer, Celeste and Diane as Hula Mountaineers, and beer. Full contact apple bobbing - my ears are still full of water! VOCJ: We’ve heard rumours that you took a VOC group down to Smith Rocks and their shouting kept all the campers awake at night. C.S.: Yup! Had a lot of fun with the Rock Guru Groupies, pre-orgy tickle fights, even came back with a tan and a pet snake (Flat Fred we call ‘im), may he rest in peace. Still have indigestion from the Golden Trough. VOCJ: What was your favourite trip? CS.: Hard to say, maybe the Singing Trip to Diamond Head, or Yak Peak with all the awesome sun and snow, or Black Tusk and hanging out in a great snow cave, It was cool going back to VEEOCEE Mountain again, extra snowshoes anyone? VOCJ: Sounds like you’ve had a busy year. Did you write anything for the Journal? CS.: Naw, i’m too busy having fun and there are too many prolific writers in the club. I like to These figures are based on UBC averages, corrected for the size of the club, then totally fudged. remain anonymous. Thanks to everyone who wrote articles and spared me the work. I.ooks like it’s going to be a fat Journal this year, must have been a big effort. VOCJ: It wasn’t toooo bad, had lots help with typing, advertising, photography, etc. (thanks Karma, Paul, Celeste, Liii, Marilyn, Chris, Ken, Andy...), and thanks to Noel for all the neat sketches. Rock and Ice, eat yer heart out! VOCJ: What are you doing for the summer? CS.: First I’m going to crash the Banquet (I’m hoping to get an impromptu goon award) then to the newly revived Sphinx Camp for a reeaal party. Then there’s the summer BBQ’s, evenings at Lighthouse Park... Trips... Tent hopping... VOCJ: Is there anything you’d like to say to your admirers? C.S.: Well folks, if you want adventure, put your boots on and go! / CONTENTS PAGE AN INTERVIEW WITH CS.

"What is V.O.C?" This question is difficult to answer. V.O.C. is a group of people interested in the outdoors bounded together by common interests and friendship. I feel that V.O.C. not only provides an outlet for people to hike, climb, ski, build trails and assist with conservation projects, but also offers a basis for attaining new friends and companionship. It is this feeling of group participation which has enabled us to build our chalet at Whistler Mountain.

  • Preliminary Calibration of a Numerical Runout Model for Debris Flows in Southwestern British Columbia

    Preliminary Calibration of a Numerical Runout Model for Debris Flows in Southwestern British Columbia

    7th International Conference on Debris-Flow Hazards Mitigation Preliminary calibration of a numerical runout model for debris flows in Southwestern British Columbia Sophia Zubryckya,*, Andrew Mitchella, Jordan Aaronb, Scott McDougalla a Department of Earth, Ocean and Atmospheric Sciences – University of British Columbia, Vancouver, British Columbia, Canada bDepartment of Engineering Geology – ETH Zürich, Zürich, Switzerland Abstract Debris-flow hazard and risk assessments require reliable estimates of inundation area, velocity and flow depth to evaluate spatial impact and impact intensity. Semi-empirical numerical runout models that simulate bulk flow behavior with simple rheological models are useful in forecasting these parameters, however, they require calibration by back-analyzing past events. This paper presents the back-analysis of six debris flows in southwestern British Columbia using a novel automated calibration approach that systematically optimizes the Dan3D runout model to fit field observations. The calibration method yielded good simulations of runout length, but under-predicted flow depths in some cases, and over-predicted velocities in all cases. The best-fit Voellmy rheology parameters for the studied cases ranged from 46 to 531 m/s2 for the turbulence coefficient and 0.08 to 0.18 for the friction coefficient. There is a potential inverse correlation between friction coefficient and event volume. Calibrated parameters were compared to morphometric parameters for the study sites, which may be useful for guiding parameter selection once a larger dataset is calibrated. Ongoing work is focused on refining the calibration technique, including standardization of input parameters more relevant to debris flows. The long-term goal is to apply the technique to a larger dataset of debris-flow cases and provide practitioners with better guidance on the selection of model input parameters for forecasting purposes.

On the flanks of the mountains are 519 glaciers, in 9 3 square mites of ice - three times as much living ice as in all the rest of the forty-eight states put together. The great river valleys contain the last remnants of the magnificent Pacific Northwest Rain Forest of immense Douglas Fir, cedar, and hemlock. f'oss and ferns carpet the forest floor, and wild• life abounds. The great rivers and thousands of streams and lakes run clear and pure still; the nine thousand foot deep trencli contain• ing 55 mile long Lake Chelan is one of tiie deepest canyons in the world, from lake bottom to mountain top, in 1937 Park Service Study Report declared that the North Cascades, if created into a National Park, would "outrank in scenic quality any existing National Park in the United States and any possibility for such a park." The seven iiiitlion acre area of the North Cascades is almost entirely Fedo rally owned, and managed by the United States Forest Service, an agency of the Department of Agriculture, The Forest Ser• vice operates under the policy of "multiple use", which permits log• ging, mining, grazing, hunting, wt Iderness, and alI forms of recrea• tional use, Hov/e ve r , the 1937 Park Study Report rec ornmen d ed the creation of a three million acre Ice Peaks National Park ombracing all of the great volcanos of the North Cascades and most of the rest of the superlative scenery.
