Jasper Trails
DEPARTMENT OF THE INTERIOR HON. CHAS. STRWART ... - Minister W. W. CORY. C.M.G.- - - Deputy Minister J. B. HARKIN - Commissioner, National Parks of Canada Mount Edith Cavell. a beautiful memorial to the British heroine JASPER TRAILS BY M. B. WILLIAMS Jasper Trails ITH the building of the transcontinental railways across the Yellowhead pass, a new door was opened W to the Canadian Rockies, a new and wonderful alpine district was made accessible to beauty lovers of the world. Yet unlike many other parts of the mountains, this was no unknown region. The steel rails from Edmon ton to the Divide had retraced two of the oldest and most travelled trails across the mountain fastnesses—the high ways of the fur trade in its most glorious days, routes rich in history and romance and famous in the literature of a century. Here for over fifty years went the explorer and fur trader, the pioneer missionary, scientist and artist; fighting their way across the snows of the Athabaska pass to the Columbia, or up the stony valley of the Miette to the "Leather" pass, as the Yellowhead summit was first called. In spite of the toils and perils of the journey many of these early travellers found time to record their im pressions and adventures in a journal. These pages, written by weary men, by the dim light of a wilderness campfire, form some of the most fascinating volumes of Canadian literature, and paint for a less heroic generation, a vivid picture of those earlier days. With the dwindling of the fur trade the glory of the "Athabaska Trail" departed. -

Huchsduwachsdu Nuyem Jees/Kitlope Heritage Conservancy Management Plan
Huchsduwachsdu Nuyem Jees/ Kitlope Heritage Conservancy Management Plan May 2012 Haisla Nation Huchsduwachsdu Nuyem Jees/Kitlope Heritage Conservancy Management Plan Approved by: Huchsduwachsdu Nuyem Jees/Kitlope Heritage Conservancy Management Plan Plan Highlights The Huchsduwachsdu Nuyem Jees/Kitlope Heritage Conservancy is collaboratively managed by the Haisla First Nation and the Province of British Columbia through the Kitlope Management Committee. Henaaksiala/Haisla1 cultural values and natural processes will prevail within the conservancy. In the longer term, a Henaaksiala/Haisla cultural centre, built in traditional longhouse style, will provide a place for visitors to learn how Haisla identity is unified through a spiritual connection to the Huchsduwachsdu Nuyem Jees. The cultural centre will exhibit traditional and science- based practices. It will provide shelter, welcome and warmth for visitors to this remote watershed. A key recommendation of the management plan is to encourage and establish research and interpretive programs that utilize traditional ecological knowledge and science-based research to contribute to understanding the ecosystems of the greater coastal area and to inform management practices. The conservancy provides a world-class learning ground for combining scientific research with traditional ecological knowledge, leading to complementary approaches to resource management. The management plan encourages cultural and ecological tourism as well as boating, camping, hiking and fishing. A few developed trails will provide an opportunity for visitors to explore the high country as well as the landscape along the inland waters adjacent to the cultural centre. Haisla Paddlers at Tenth Anniversary of the Decision to Protect the Kitlope 1 Throughout the management plan there will be many references to Henaaksiala and to Haisla people. -
