  • SS Moyie National Historic Site of Canada
    BC Register of Historic Places (Full Record) Common Name: S.S. Moyie National Historic Site of Canada Unique Provincial ID Other Name S.S. Moyie LOCATION Address # Street Community Locality PID# 324 Front Street Kaslo south shore of Kaslo Bay Location The SS moyie is comprised of the vessel itself which is located at 324 Front street on the Description south shore of the bay in Kaslo. Latitude 49.9117303 Longitude -116.902256 DESCRIPTION Description The S.S. Moyie National Historic Site of Canada is a late 19th-century, steam-propelled, stern-wheeler, located on the south shore of Kaslo Bay on Kootenay Lake. She has been in dry dock since 1958. Official recognition refers to the vessel itself. The additional structures of the S.S. Kuskanook Saloon, the Mirror Lake Post Office, the miner‟s cabin, the caboose and visitor centre, plus the historic collections throughout the site are included for the Kaslo Community Register. Heritage Value The S.S. Moyie was designated a national historic site of Canada in 1958 and reaffirmed in 1983, because: - Upon retirement she was the oldest Canadian-built paddle wheeler in service; - The significant role played by such vessels in the opening up and development of the interior of British Columbia; The heritage value of this site resides in its historical associations, in the physical properties of the vessel itself, and in the collections of historical items and artifacts housed within the vessel. The S. S. Moyie was built and assembled in 1898 at the Canadian Pacific Railway shipyard at Nelson, British Columbia.

    February 28, 1980 Source: The Province, February 28, 1980. Details: February 28, three avalanches closed the Salmo to Creston section of Highway 3. Highway maintenance crews hoped to reopen the highway on February 28. Traffic over the Rogers Pass section of the Trans-Canada Highway was also delayed by avalanche stabilisation work. March 1980 Source: Campbell River Courier-Islander, February 16, 2007. Details: In March, a section of bank let loose, slamming into what was then called the Island Inn Motel and causing extensive damage. March 12, 1980 Source: Campbell River Courier, March 14, 1980; The Campbell River and area Mirror, March 19, 1980. Details: Starting 10 p.m. on March 12, southeast winds caused power outages between Courtenay-Kelsy Bay, including Quadra Island. The Campbell River airport recorded winds as high as 80 km/h. A heavy blanket of wet snow compounded the problem. In the Black Creek and Campbell River area, about 11 cm of snow fell, while the Campbell River airport received 30 cm. At Campbell River’s Tyee Spit, some floatplanes sank under the weight of the snow. A large helicopter was used to raise two of the aircraft. Early June 1980 Source: Victoria Times, June 6, 1980. Details: In early June, heavy rains caused several mud- and debris slides about 25 km north of Lytton. On June 6, this section of the Trans-Canada Highway reopened to one lane traffic.

While it is comparatively easy to give in detail the special climatic peculiarities attaching" to any localized area of a country where a population has dwelt for years and the meteorological ccnditions have been the subject of scientific enquiry, yet it is manifestly quite different when an attempt is made to condense within the limits of a small pamphlet the qualities of the climates of an area some 4,000 miles in breadth, bordered by two oceans of markedly different characters and extending almost half the distance from the Equator to the Pole.

  • Canadian Pacific Vancouver Island and the British Columbia Coast
    Canadian Pacific Vancouver Island and the British Columbia Coast. Canadian Pacific Afloat 1883-1968 A short history and fleet list by George Musk, A.M.Inst.T. First edition 1956 Reprinted 1957 Reprinted 1961 Revised edition 1968 ACKNOWLEDGEMENTS For their assistance in the production of this book our thanks are due to: Dr. W. Kaye Lamb, the Dominion Archivist, Ottawa, Canada; Lloyd's Register of Shipping; the Shipping Press; the Admiralty; the Ministry of Transport and Civil Aviation; Port Officials at Singapore, Tobruk and Vigo; Shipbuilders and Shipbreakers; members of the Research Team of the World Ship Society on both sides of the Atlantic; and many others. For the line-drawings reproduced from "North Atlantic Seaway" we are indebted to Mr J. H. Isherwood, Mr N. R. P. Bonsor, and T. Stephenson & Sons Ltd. The Minnedosa and Montezuma were specially drawn by Mr Isherwood; these two latter drawings are not to the same scale as the drawings from "N.A.S." Finally, our especial thanks are due to our printer's manager, Mr G. Fielding, and all his staff, for their helpfulness. 1 Warrington, England PREFACE The interest aroused by our first "Ocean Fleet List" has prompted this endeavour to produce a complete list of the Company's Ocean, Coastal and Inland ships. Collecting facts over so long a period of time has presented many difficulties and regrettably the information on some of the older ships is still very patchy. In many cases Company records are sparse or have been destroyed. Lack of time and facilities has prevented any assessment of personalities or the investi­ gation of the economic implications, however, the tables on pages 20 and 32 will point t» the changing pattern of the Company's operations, although it has not yet been possible to collect figures prior to 1920.
