Glaciers of North America— GLACIERS of CANADA
Glaciers of North America— GLACIERS OF CANADA HISTORY OF GLACIER INVESTIGATIONS IN CANADA By C. SIMON L. OMMANNEY SATELLITE IMAGE ATLAS OF GLACIERS OF THE WORLD Edited by RICHARD S. WILLIAMS, Jr., and JANE G. FERRIGNO U.S. GEOLOGICAL SURVEY PROFESSIONAL PAPER 1386–J–1 The earliest recorded description of a Canadian glacier was in 1861. Since that time, various glaciological investigations have been conducted in the several glacierized regions of Canada (for example, Coast Mountains, Interior Ranges, Rocky Mountains, and Arctic Islands), including mass balance, modeling, dendrochronology, climatology, ice chemistry and physics, ice-core analyses, glacier-surge mechanics, and airborne and satellite remote sensing CONTENTS Page Abstract ------------------------------------------------------------------------------ J27 Occurrence of Glaciers----------------------------------------------------------- 27 FIGURE 1.

The Coast Range of British Columbia
1 THE ALASKAN PANHANDLE and NORTH BRITISH COLUMBIA: A CLIMBER’S GUIDE. By Earle R. Whipple and Steven C. Gruhn Even today, the Alaskan Panhandle and the Coast Range (Coastal Ranges) of British Columbia are two of the wildest and most unknown ranges in the world. It is a land of high mountains, long distances, difficult access, long fjords (inlets), big inland lakes, large glaciers and icefields, powerful rivers and deep valleys with undergrowth. When measured from north-northwest to south-southeast, British Columbia is 1600 km (1000 miles) long, up to 800 km wide in the north, but narrower in the south, and is endowed with several cordilleras, of which the Coast Range and the Canadian Rockies are the longest. Only a relatively few areas are routinely visited by mountaineers in Alaska and the northern Coast Range. There is excellent technical climbing in the Taku Group on the Mendenhall Towers. The Stikine Group has outstanding summits such as Oasis Peak, the Devil’s Thumb, Cat’s Ears Spire and the Witch’s Tits, all on excellent rock and formidable. Numbers of traverses, both for summer and winter, abound. There are many easy summits and, along the coast, easy summits rise a bit above tree line with marvellous views not only of mountains but of the channels and islands. The Groups have inlets (fjords) and channels from the ocean, and climbers often approach their favourite peaks by boat, securing their craft against the coming tides. The famous American conservationist John Muir ascended the Snow Dome (Takhinsha Group) in 1888. The border between Alaska and British Columbia is long and the formal determination of the border produced much government- sponsored exploration and climbing by the United States and Canada in the years just before and after 1900.
