Project Year Number One (2002) SYNOPSIS This report presents the findings ofyear one ofan archaeological inventory study ofthe Skyline Trail System which runs through Manning and Skagit Valley Provincial Parks in southwestern RC. Although the entire length ofthe trail was walked through by project archaeologists at one time or another, during this study, intensive survey focused on areas west of Despair Pass including the Hozameen Ridge Trail. A total of four precontact archaeological sites were identified during the 2002 survey (Sites DgR f 1 through 4). All sites identified consisted of a surface and/or subsurface scatter of lithic artifacts and material located primarily along ridgelines and secondly within protected areas such as basins. The sites identified during the 2002 field season in the area ofthe Skyline (and Hozameen Ridge) Trail have greatly added to our understanding ofthis important travel corridor and general use area. They complement sites recorded within Skagit Valley Park by Franck (2000); Lepofsky et al. (1999); Rousseau (1988); and Bush (1997, 1998), not to mention many archaeological resources identified by North Cascades Park Archaeologist Bob Mierendorfto the south ofthe international line (e.g., Mierendorf 1986, 1987, 1991, 1993, 1997, 1998, 1999; Mierendorfet al. 1998, 1999). While still at its infancy, research within the North Cascade Mountains has made significant leaps over the last decade. Once considered to be a marginally, ifnot an entirely unused part ofthe landscape, the researchers mentioned above have proven that the area was significantly important to aboriginal people in the far past, the protohistoric time period, and continuing today. Our largest task, scientifically, is to generate more hard data particularly from excavated contexts with accompanying dates, faunal analysis, etc. This initial survey is a large step towards acquiring the data we need. In addition to the obvious need for further hard empirical data it is equally important that we continue to assemble knowledge from people who traditionally used the area. Much ofthis information has been lost due to the sad fact that many ofthe elders ofFirst Nations who used or were knowledgeable ofthis area have now passed on. Fortunately, other lines ofevidence, particularly linguistic, could shed light on the use ofthese areas. It is clear that aboriginal uses ofhigh elevation areas may not always follow strict resource-based and dependent criteria. Obviously, with this in mind, research cannot continue to simply follow conventional site identification methodology. Some sites may be so physically subtle or only recognizable through complex context that conventional methodology may overlook them. Developing alternative methodology will not be easy; however, realizing that there might be a problem with conventional methodology is the first step. A long list ofsite attributes associated with non-resource-based sites needs to be generated first. This data must then, ifpossible, be directly integrated into how we physically view the landscape. Of course the visibility ofsome criteria may be impossible for most people (e.g., areas ofhigh spiritual energy) but it might be high time to put 'spiritually in-tune' people into these areas and just see what happens and set empirical wisdom to the side for awhile. Regardless, ifwe do look for areas ofspiritual importance there should be at least some physical evidence. If people were attracted to an area, even for a completely non-utilitarian reasons, chances are something would have been left behind. It is our job, as archaeologists, to figure out what this might be. Our most easily rectified data gap within the North Cascades is that ofexcavated site data and at least one site identified during this study (Site DgRl; Mowich Camp) has a very good chance ofproviding some ofthis information and should be pursued. In fact, a series ofexcavations ofsites identified in the North Cascades would greatly improve our knowledge base ofthe aboriginal use ofthis mountainous area. This would include several sites identified south ofthe international border by Mierendorf(1991, 1993, 1997, 1998, 1999) and to the north by Franck (2000) and Franck and Schaepe (2002). Ofcourse further survey would always be valuable and should not be overlooked particularly ifit can identify additional sites with substantial subsurface deposits appropriate for excavation. These surveys may want to step away from ridgelines where sites are often easily identified but do not normally contain any significant depth ofdeposit and focus instead on sheltered basin areas below ridgelines (near water) and ultimately rock shelters or caves. The archaeology ofthe North Cascades is at an exciting turning point that is bound to generate more and more important data. Only diligent, thoughtful, and ongoing research will make sure that we reach an understanding that comes close to the reality ofwhat happened in these steep places in the past.

    Snow Survey and Water Supply Bulletin – January 1st, 2021 The January 1st snow survey is now complete. Data from 58 manual snow courses and 86 automated snow weather stations around the province (collected by the Ministry of Environment Snow Survey Program, BC Hydro and partners), and climate data from Environment and Climate Change Canada and the provincial Climate Related Monitoring Program have been used to form the basis of the following report1. Weather October began with relatively warm and dry conditions, but a major cold spell dominated the province in mid-October. Temperatures primarily ranged from -1.5 to +1.0˚C compared to normal. The cold spell also produced early season low elevation snowfall for the Interior. Following the snowfall, heavy rain from an atmospheric river affected the Central Coast and spilled into the Cariboo, resulting in prolonged flood conditions. Overall, most of the Interior received above normal precipitation for the month, whereas coastal regions were closer to normal. In November, temperatures were steady at near normal to slightly above normal and primarily ranged from -0.5 to +1.5˚C through the province. The warmest temperatures relative to normal occurred in the Interior, while the coldest occurred in the Northwest. Precipitation was mostly below normal to near normal (35-105%) with the Northeast / Peace as the driest areas. A few locations, e.g. Prince Rupert and Williams Lake, were above 130% due to a strong storm event early in the month. Temperatures in December were relatively warm across the province, ranging from +1.0 to +5.0˚C above normal.

The quadrangle is mostly rugged and remote and includes much of the North Cascade National Park and several dedicated Wilderness areas managed by the U.S. Forest Service. Geologic exploration has been slow and difficult. In 1858 George Gibbs (1874) ascended the Skagit River part way to begin the geographic and geologic exploration of the North Cascades. In 1901, Reginald Daly (1912) surveyed the 49th parallel along the Canadian side of the border, and George Smith and Frank Calkins (1904) surveyed the United States' side. Daly's exhaustive report was the first attempt to synthesize what has become an extremely complicated geologic story.

Ici cl< DE-6 (2/88) ABSTRACT The objective of this study is to reconstruct the history of glaciation from the start of Fraser (Late Wisconsinan) Glaciation to the end of deglaciation, for three areas in the Cascade Mountains. The Cascade Mountains are located between the Coast Mountains and the Interior Plateau in southwestern British Columbia. The Coast Mountains were glaciated by mountain glaciation followed by frontal retreat, whereas the Interior Plateau underwent ice sheet glaciation followed by downwasting and stagnation. The Cascades were supposed to have undergone a style of glaciation transitional between these two.
