MAP OF ARENA LOCATION Key Web Sites: http://www.westvancouver.ca/ http://www.westvancouver.com/community/sports/ HISTORY OF AND WEST VANCOUVER West Vancouver is a district municipality in the province of British Columbia, Canada. Part of Metro Vancouver, the municipality is northwest of the city of Vancouver on Burrard Inlet and Howe Sound, and is adjoined by the District of North Vancouver to its east. It forms the North Shore municipalities together with the District of North Vancouver and City of North Vancouver. West Vancouver has a population of 42,131 (2006 census). As of 2008, the mayor is Pam Goldsmith-Jones. Cypress Provincial Park, mostly located within the municipal boundaries, will be one of the venues for the 2010 Winter Olympics. West Vancouver was also named a Cultural Capital of Canada for 2006. West Vancouver is also home of Canada's first shopping mall, Park Royal Shopping Centre. The Municipality of West Vancouver was incorporated on March 15, 1912, after separating from the District of North Vancouver. The first municipal election was held on April 6, 1912. In November 1938, the Lions' Gate Bridge was opened to traffic, allowing extensive growth of the semi-populated community, previously only accessible by ferry. Some homes in West Vancouver date back to the 1920s and 30s, though most of the currently existing dwellings were built in the 1970s and 80s, and mostly in British Pacific Properties' developments HISTORY OF NORTH VANCOUVER On August 10, 1891, the first municipality on the North Shore was formed as the District of North Vancouver. It stretched across the North Shore from Horseshoe Bay to Deep Cove but omitted Moodyville. In the early years of this century, a real estate boom took place, with speculators including the British poet Rudyard Kipling - eager to turn a quick dollar. A new community began to take shape. In 1902, the Hotel North Vancouver was built; in 1905, the first bank - a branch of the Bank of North America - opened. A newspaper, the Express, commenced publication in 1905 and in 1906 the British Columbia Electric Railway Company began streetcar services. Industry, particularly shipbuilding, became central, with the magnificent stands of trees a rich resource for a society in which ships, houses and most other manmade things were constructed mainly of wood. The Wallace Shipyards moved in 1906 to the area just east of Lonsdale Avenue, drawn by the arrival of electricity. Over the years, this company - later known as Burrard Dry Dock and then Versatile Pacific Shipyards - became a major force in the local economy. Many of the shipyard's buildings still stand although the company has now ceased operations. Economic prosperity and rapid growth in the Lower Lonsdale area of North Vancouver led to the establishment in 1907 of the separate City of North Vancouver, with a population of approximately 1,500. West Vancouver separated from the District in 1912. Apart from the addition of Moodyville in 1915, the boundaries of the City have not changed, even though far more people now call the District home SPORTS SHOPS: *skate sharpening Ultimate Edge Sports 2411 Mount Seymour Pky, North Vancouver Larry’s Sport Shop: 2029 Lonsdale Ave., North Vancouver Time Out Sports: 235 Mountain Hwy, North Vancouver Scoff’s Hockey Shop 3951 Hastings St. Burnaby ACCOMMODATIONS Comfort Inn & Suites 604-988-3181 1748 Capilano Rd., North Vancouver, BC Includes, continental breakfast $85.00/night 5 minutes from Grouse Mountain and Capilano Suspension Bridge.

  • Vancouver, British Columbia Destination Guide
    Vancouver, British Columbia Destination Guide Overview of Vancouver Vancouver is bustling, vibrant and diverse. This gem on Canada's west coast boasts the perfect combination of wild natural beauty and modern conveniences. Its spectacular views and awesome cityscapes are a huge lure not only for visitors but also for big productions, and it's even been nicknamed Hollywood North for its ever-present film crews. Less than a century ago, Vancouver was barely more than a town. Today, it's Canada's third largest city and more than two million people call it home. The shiny futuristic towers of Yaletown and the downtown core contrast dramatically with the snow-capped mountain backdrop, making for postcard-pretty scenes. Approximately the same size as the downtown area, the city's green heart is Canada's largest city park, Stanley Park, covering hundreds of acres filled with lush forest and crystal clear lakes. Visitors can wander the sea wall along its exterior, catch a free trolley bus tour, enjoy a horse-drawn carriage ride or visit the Vancouver Aquarium housed within the park. The city's past is preserved in historic Gastown with its cobblestone streets, famous steam-powered clock and quaint atmosphere. Neighbouring Chinatown, with its weekly market, Dr Sun Yat-Sen classical Chinese gardens and intriguing restaurants add an exotic flair. For some retail therapy or celebrity spotting, there is always the trendy Robson Street. During the winter months, snow sports are the order of the day on nearby Grouse Mountain. It's perfect for skiing and snowboarding, although the city itself gets more rain than snow.

V6T 1Z4 phone: (604) 822-9695 fax: (604) 822-9102 email: [email protected] Report compiled by: Steve Ogle Cite as: Martin, K. and S. Ogle. 2000. The Use of Alpine Habitats by Migratory Birds in B.C. Parks: 1998 Summary. Unpublished report, Department of Forest Sciences, Univ. of British Columbia and Canadian Wildlife Service, Pacific and Yukon Region. 15 p. http://www.forestry.ubc.ca/alpine/docs/alpmig-2.pdf Background and objectives Our investigation is aimed at determining the relative importance of high-elevation habitats to migratory birds in southwestern British Columbia. Both altitudinal (moving upslope) and latitudinal (traveling south) migrant birds are thought to take advantage of abundant resources that occur in alpine habitats during late summer. This seasonal resource may play a significant role in the survival of many individuals of various species. Although many high-elevation habitats are protected in parks and reserves, climatologists believe that these areas could be adversely influenced by even minor climatic changes. In southwestern B.C., alpine areas form the headwaters of all major watersheds, and monitoring of avian abundance may help to model the health of downstream water resources. In general, little is known about the ecology of alpine and sub-alpine habitats and we hope that this study will broaden the understanding and awareness of these fragile ecosystems.

  • BMN Hike: Grouse Mountain Via Mackay Creek
    BMN HIKE REPORT Grouse Mountain via Mackay Creek (May 16, 2015) by Mark Johnston On the Mackay Creek Trail. Chloe Tu photo. At the start of the May long weekend, five us of gathered for a return trip to the North Shore mountains, this time a hike up much visited Grouse Mountain but by a route that sees relatively little traffic. Our leaders, Rich and Janet, were familiar with the trail; for the rest of us it would be a new path. It was a cloudy day and as the ceiling was fairly low, we wondered whether, higher up the mountain, we would have any views. Our plan was to hike the Mackay Creek Trail to Simic’s Trail and then proceed along the Cut ski run until we reached “The Peak of Vancouver.” Parking at the base of the Skyride, we headed east along the power line right-of-way toward Mackay Creek. As we walked, we took notice of dame’s rocket and buttercup in bloom and enjoyed occasional views of Greater Vancouver. As it would turn out, these would be our only distant views until our descent via the aerial tramway three hours later. Just past the bridge over West Mackay Creek, we left the power line, climbed up the gravelly bank and entered the forest. Initially we stayed quite close to the rocky creek bed, but soon our trail veered east, away from the creek, and after awhile we came within earshot of the East Mackay tributary. Never approaching as closely to this branch, we stayed high on the ridge between tributaries and gained elevation steadily with a minimum of switchbacks.
