Milford Sound, Airport Wall, Mile High Club New Zealand, Southern Alps
AAC Publications Milford Sound, Airport Wall, Mile High Club New Zealand, Southern Alps In recent years I have been living between France and the USA, not really spending much time in my native New Zealand. My wife, Julie, is French, and our loose plan was to settle in France when our young son, Sam, started school. At the end of 2019, we had just finished a three-month road trip in California and headed back to NZ for Christmas—for what we intended to be a 10-week visit. But that was before COVID-19. In February, France began its first lockdown, and India, where I was meant to go in April to attempt Changabang, canceled all tourist visas. Since we were already in New Zealand, which at the time had no COVID- related restrictions, we took the easy option of staying there. A few months passed. New Zealand went through its own lockdown, which ended on May 13. We emerged with few restrictions, but we certainly weren’t leaving the country anytime soon. For two years, I had thought of Changabang daily, and for four months I’d been training cardio almost exclusively. Now I began looking for an outlet for all of the energy I had been saving for Changabang. There were no standout alpine objectives calling my name in New Zealand, but my friend Merry Schimanski, who was taking a year off work, was keen to help me develop a long rock route. Like me, he has a love of ground-up adventure climbing, and he is also well versed in establishing big granite lines. -
Interest and the Panamint Shoshone (E.G., Voegelin 1938; Zigmond 1938; and Kelly 1934)
109 VyI. NOTES ON BOUNDARIES AND CULTURE OF THE PANAMINT SHOSHONE AND OWENS VALLEY PAIUTE * Gordon L. Grosscup Boundary of the Panamint The Panamint Shoshone, also referred to as the Panamint, Koso (Coso) and Shoshone of eastern California, lived in that portion of the Basin and Range Province which extends from the Sierra Nevadas on the west to the Amargosa Desert of eastern Nevada on the east, and from Owens Valley and Fish Lake Valley in the north to an ill- defined boundary in the south shared with Southern Paiute groups. These boundaries will be discussed below. Previous attempts to define the Panamint Shoshone boundary have been made by Kroeber (1925), Steward (1933, 1937, 1938, 1939 and 1941) and Driver (1937). Others, who have worked with some of the groups which border the Panamint Shoshone, have something to say about the common boundary between the group of their special interest and the Panamint Shoshone (e.g., Voegelin 1938; Zigmond 1938; and Kelly 1934). Kroeber (1925: 589-560) wrote: "The territory of the westernmost member of this group [the Shoshone], our Koso, who form as it were the head of a serpent that curves across the map for 1, 500 miles, is one of the largest of any Californian people. It was also perhaps the most thinly populated, and one of the least defined. If there were boundaries, they are not known. To the west the crest of the Sierra has been assumed as the limit of the Koso toward the Tubatulabal. On the north were the eastern Mono of Owens River. -

The Chief Dick Culbert
The Chief Dick Culbert Its official name is Stawamus Chief, a ridge of modest elevation (652 m) squatting in a valley amid 1800 m and higher summits, directly above the port of Squamish. The Chief, however, is not so much a mountain as a wall. Solid granite, roughly a mile long, and up to 460 m in relief-altogether an impress ive looking cliff to have in the back yard of a town. Firm rock, serious dimen sions, and above all the Chief's easy access have made it the focal point of rock climbing on the W coast of Canada. A major highway skirts the base of the main walls, now an hour's drive from the city of Vancouver and 4 hours from the larger American metropolis of Seattle. Since the beginning of serious climbing at Squamish, it has been part of the 'Yosemite School'. Even at a time when Yosemite was a place known only from journals and rumours, Chief-enthusiasts attempted to apply what was known of the Californian techniques and the decimal system of grading. Almost without exception, those who have been most successful on the Chief, have gone on to become part of the Yosemite scene, bypassing the other American rock climbing centres in the traditional 1500 mile journey to that shrine. To be sure, there are some rough similarities between the 2 climbing areas. Both are granite and both are children of the Ice Age-the last glacier having pulled back from the Squamish Valley a mere 10,000 years ago. Beyond these factors there are some very important differences, however, which run almost entirely in favour of Yosemite. -

WOP SONG: TUNE & ECHO A Stage Play with Music Written by Vian Andrews Italian translation by Claudio Ginocchietti Fourth Revision completed 10 Feb '17 Based on an original idea Copyright October 2016 Vian Andrews 4583 Neville Street Burnaby, BC V5J 3G9 778-378-7954 WOPSONG: TUNE & ECHO ACT 1 A sunny piazza in the dilapidated, dun-colored village of Calabro in the mountains of southern Italy, 2016. On the left, the main door to the village church, on the right a cafe whose sign is badly in need of repainting, with two tables with chairs. In between the church and the cafe there is a row of three drab houses. On the first house and third house a shutter or two is open, but the shutters of the center house are closed and one or two are hanging askew. A small riser stands in front of the center house. Two older men play cards at one of the cafe tables. An old woman, dressed in black, sits on the stoop of the first house, taking in the scene while absentmindedly gnashing her teeth. Suddenly the blast of a horn from an arriving bus is heard off left, making the old woman and the men jump. Father Sarducci, the town priest opens the door of the church and steps out at the same time, Gaetano, the owner of the cafe and his wife, Giuseppina, step out of the cafe to find out what is going on. The voices of three men singing Bon Jovi’s This House is Not for Sale is heard coming from the direction of the bus. -

Käraste Micke med barn, Tillsammans med er sörjer vi en underbar persons hädangång, och medan ni har förlorat en hustru och en mamma har miljoner av beundrare världen över förlorat en vän och en inspirationskälla. Många av dessa kände att de hade velat prata med er, dela sina historier om Marie med er, om vad hon betydde för dem, och hur mycket hon har förändrat deras liv. Det ni håller i era händer är en samling av över 6200 berättelser, funderingar och minnen från människor ni förmodligen inte kän- ner personligen, men som Marie har gjort ett enormt intryck på. Ni kommer att hitta både sorgliga och glada inlägg förstås, men huvuddelen av dem visar faktiskt hur enormt mycket bättre världen har blivit med hjälp av er, och vår, Marie. Hon kommer att leva kvar i så många människors hjärtan, och hon kommer aldrig att glömmas. Tack för allt Marie, The Daily Roxette å tusentals beundrares vägnar. A A. Sarper Erokay from Ankara/ Türkiye: How beautiful your heart was, how beautiful your songs were. It is beyond the words to describe my sorrow, yet it was pleasant to share life on world with you in the same time frame. Many of Roxette songs inspired me through life, so many memories both sad and pleasant. May angels brighten your way through joining the universe, rest in peace. Roxette music will echo forever wihtin the hearts, world and in eternity. And you’ll be remembered! A.Frank from Germany: Liebe Marie, dein Tod hat mich zu tiefst traurig gemacht. Ich werde deine Musik immer wieder hören. -
Geology and Geothermal Potential of the AWA Claim Group, Squamish
Geology and Geothermal Potential- of the AWA Claim$koup, JAN t-l 5 2004 I Squamish, British Columbia Gold COmIniSSioner’S Office I VANCOUVER,B.C. I Prepared for Lisa Rummel & AWA Spa Glenn J. Woodsworth, P. Geo. April 2003 3 SUMMARY A geologicalstudy was done on the AWA group of 6 mineral claims with a view to assessingthe geothermalpotential. The claims are almost entirely underlain by granitic rocks of the latest JurassicCloudburst pluton and, south of the Stawamus River, by the mid-CretaceousSquamish pluton. Fracture and joint analysisshows a , weak north-northeast trend, but fractures tend to be widely spaced.No signsof faulting or of igneousactivity related to Garibaldi volcanism were seenon the .zproperty. Faults, if they exist, are likely to be narrow, making them difficult drilling targets. The low regional heat flow-. and the lack of a “plumbing system”in the granitic, rocks on the property indicate that the geothermalpotential is very low. No further work is warranted. INTRODUCTION The AWA claim group consistsof 6 mineral claims,AWA #l to 6, stakedOctober 8, 2002,and owned by Lisa Rummel. The claims are situated in and just eastof the District of Squamishmunicipality, northeast of the subdivision of Valleycliffe (Figure 1). On the southwest,the claim group abuts StawamusChief Provincial Park and private property of the Valleycliffesubdivision and Squamishwaterworks. I was contracted by the owner to make a geologicalappraisal of the geothermal potential of the claim group and to make suggestionsfor further work. Field work was done in two long days;this work was supplementedwith an air photo study and review of the recent geologicalliterature on the region. -
Chapter 3 Intrusive Igneous Rocks
Chapter 3 Intrusive Igneous Rocks Learning Objectives After carefully reading this chapter, completing the exercises within it, and answering the questions at the end, you should be able to: • Describe the rock cycle and the types of processes that lead to the formation of igneous, sedimentary, and metamorphic rocks, and explain why there is an active rock cycle on Earth. • Explain the concept of partial melting and describe the geological processes that lead to melting. • Describe, in general terms, the range of chemical compositions of magmas. • Discuss the processes that take place during the cooling and crystallization of magma, and the typical order of crystallization according to the Bowen reaction series. • Explain how magma composition can be changed by fractional crystallization and partial melting of the surrounding rocks. • Apply the criteria for igneous rock classification based on mineral proportions. • Describe the origins of phaneritic, porphyritic, and pegmatitic rock textures. • Identify plutons on the basis of their morphology and their relationships to the surrounding rocks. • Explain the origin of a chilled margin. 65 Physical Geology - 2nd Edition 66 Figure 3.0.1 A fine-grained mafic dyke (dark green) intruded into a felsic dyke (pink) and into coarse diorite (grey), Quadra Island, B.C. All of these rocks are composed of more than one type of mineral. The mineral components are clearly visible in the diorite, but not in the other two rock types. A rock is a consolidated mixture of minerals. By consolidated, we mean hard and strong; real rocks don’t fall apart in your hands! A mixture of minerals implies the presence of more than one mineral grain, but not necessarily more than one type of mineral (Figure 3.0.1).
