  • Self-Guiding Geology Tour of Stanley Park
    Page 1 of 30 Self-guiding geology tour of Stanley Park Points of geological interest along the sea-wall between Ferguson Point & Prospect Point, Stanley Park, a distance of approximately 2km. (Terms in bold are defined in the glossary) David L. Cook P.Eng; FGAC. Introduction:- Geomorphologically Stanley Park is a type of hill called a cuesta (Figure 1), one of many in the Fraser Valley which would have formed islands when the sea level was higher e.g. 7000 years ago. The surfaces of the cuestas in the Fraser valley slope up to the north 10° to 15° but approximately 40 Mya (which is the convention for “million years ago” not to be confused with Ma which is the convention for “million years”) were part of a flat, eroded peneplain now raised on its north side because of uplift of the Coast Range due to plate tectonics (Eisbacher 1977) (Figure 2). Cuestas form because they have some feature which resists erosion such as a bastion of resistant rock (e.g. volcanic rock in the case of Stanley Park, Sentinel Hill, Little Mountain at Queen Elizabeth Park, Silverdale Hill and Grant Hill or a bed of conglomerate such as Burnaby Mountain). Figure 1: Stanley Park showing its cuesta form with Burnaby Mountain, also a cuesta, in the background. Page 2 of 30 Figure 2: About 40 million years ago the Coast Mountains began to rise from a flat plain (peneplain). The peneplain is now elevated, although somewhat eroded, to about 900 metres above sea level. The average annual rate of uplift over the 40 million years has therefore been approximately 0.02 mm.

  • Klinaklini Heli-Rafting Planning Your Trip…
    KLINAKLINI HELI-RAFTING PLANNING YOUR TRIP…. Thank you for choosing a R.O.A.M. wilderness rafting and hiking trip. We are very excited that you will be joining us for an unforgettable river trip through some of British Columbia’s most spectacular wilderness. In June of 1997, we put together an expedition team of professional guides for the first descent of this incredible mountain waterway. In August of the same year, we operated the first commercial trip with Men’s Journal magazine covering the event. In 1998, complete with supermodels, we operated the first all-woman descent in conjunction with the Donna Karan Corporation of New York and Marie Claire Magazine. Today, this carefully planned state- of-the-art expedition allows participants to travel where it was once unimaginable. If any of your questions remain unanswered, please don’t hesitate to call. We strive to fully prepare you for what to expect on your trip so you can spend your vacation thinking more about smelling the essence of a forest of old growth cedars or a field of Alpine wildflowers than whether or not you brought the right pair of shoes. The Terrain We Cover Rafting the Klinaklini River offers the adventurous traveller a bounty of images and experiences. Your rafting trip begins at the edge of the great interior plateau of British Columbia’s Chilcotin country, at Klinaklini Lake. This lake is a jewel encircled by pristine wilderness and it’s the perfect habitat for moose, grizzly bears, wolves, cougars and eagles. Enveloped by the peaks and canyons of the Coastal Range, you will be able to see Mt.

  • Free Flight Vol Libre
    3/97 Jun-Jul free flight • vol libre cover photonotavailableforpdffile Airspace?? Liaison AIRSPACE While you are awaiting your turn to take your annual check flights, you will read Scott McMaster’s report on the meetings that took place around the establishment of the new Ottawa TCA. I believe that we did well. This is my opinion. But what stands out is the superb representation we are all benefitting from. I want to tip my hat to Airspace committee members Scott McMaster and Ian Grant for the leadership and dedication to this important and critical issue. These meetings are totally unsuited for non–profit organiza- tions such as ours. They are sometimes two or three days long, on weekdays of course, forcing people to use hard earned vacation days to participate. In fact, SAC was the only recreational aviation organization present at one of these meetings. Scott, Ian, Jim McCollum and I felt that this first TCA review, while delivering an interim agreement of interest to the Ottawa members, will pave the way for future studies, such as will occur for Calgary and Halifax. At this time, we are looking at adding members to the airspace committee so that this overwhelming workload can be further shared. RECRUITING We practise a wonderful sport, one that gets tremendous people together to share an intellectual and physical challenge with, not against, the forces of nature — harvesting the energy of wind and sun. Collectively we need to offer a product of quality, a challenging learning experience, in a safe environment. In order to achieve this, we need a critical mass at the club level and nationally.

E-mail: [email protected] Table of Contents EXECUTIVE SUMMARY This report presents the results of the Public Safety Canada funded project to inventory current and predict future trends in avalanche threats and mitigation programs in Canada. The project also updated the Natural Resources Canada website and map of fatal avalanche incidents. Avalanches have been responsible for at least 702 fatalities in Canada since the earliest recorded incident in 1782. Sixty-one percent of these fatalities occurred in British Columbia, with 13% in Alberta, 11% in Quebec and 10% in Newfoundland and Labrador. The remainder occurred in Ontario, Nova Scotia and the Yukon, Northwest and Nunavut Territories. Fifty-three percent of the fatalities were people engaged in recreational activities, while 18% were people in or near buildings, 16% were travelling or working on transportation corridors and 8% were working in resource industries.

    TJk< Varsity Outdoor Club Journal VOLUME XXII 1979 ISSN 0524-5613 7Ae Wiiveuitj of ThitUh Cotumka Vancouver, Canada PRESIDENT'S MESSAGE Paul Hooper March 1980 Having been used to the Canadian Shield wilderness of Ontario and to skiing on a 200 foot mountain of garbage by Toronto International Airport, I was somewhat stunned by B.C.. The first few weeks of my university life were spent with awe as I stumbled around campus observing the benign beauty of the local hills. No longer would I have to drive for three hours to see a good expanse of uninterrupted vegetation or dodge rusty refrigerators while skiing on the garbage hill. I motivated myself to explore these new lands and since then I've seen most parts of the province. The V.O.C. was a motivating force for me ever since the beginning. I was impressed with the organized meetings and started to enjoy the companionship. I soon realized university was more than a place for pushing pencils. The largest push came when I worked for a summer initiating the construction of the Howe Sound Crest Trail under V.O.C. sponsership. The trail crew had more fun than work and a close tie with the V.O.C. resulted. My first minor exploration involved only day hikes with the V.O.C. By the end of the first year, I was tramping around Sphinx Camp with a day pack complete with garbage bag, accessories and a duck hunter sleeping bag. My equipment has changed but the nickname of Colonel Trashbag hasn't.

Approval Name: Amy Harris Degree: Master of Arts Title: Search (and Rescue) for the Ultimate Selfie: How the use of social media and smartphone technology have affected human behaviour in outdoor recreation scenarios Examining Committee: Chair: Sun-ha Hong Assistant Professor Peter Anderson Senior Supervisor Associate Professor Shane Gunster Supervisor Associate Professor Pascal Haegeli Examiner Assistant Professor Resource & Environmental Management Date Defended/Approved: April 7, 2020 ii Ethics Statement iii Abstract The practice of outdoor recreation was historically a form of therapy and escape from the rigors of modern industrial daily work-life, and it remains a favored pastime today, with 70% of Canadians and 91% of British Columbia residents participating in “outdoor recreation or wilderness activities”. In recent years, there is a belief that the surge in popularity of hiking is due to beautiful destinations becoming more visible on social media. Further, the proximity of urban centres like Vancouver to such destinations reassures users that the safety benefits of urban technologies including smartphones, will remain accessible and reliable throughout their outdoor exploration and that help is available in the event of an emergency.
