Tb. Varsity Øtddoor Club 3Ournal Tb. Varsity øtddoor Club 3ournal VOLUME XXXI 1988 ISSN 0524-5613 ‘7/se ?ô7ireuity of Bteah Ccs!um6.a Vscoiwi, TIlE PRESIDENT’S MESSAGE Andy Pacheco The success of a club can be gauged by how many people ase inspired enough to become involved with the club activities. For an outdoor club, the major activities are, of course, trips to the mountains. Both Longhike and especially the glacier school in October attracted record numbers, and though these numbers predictably decreased as the midterms and exams came raining down, many an impromptu day trip was still thrown together at the eleventh hour in the club room Fridays. The VOC Christmas trips were all well attended, and in addition, two very successful avalanche awareness courses and a wilderness first aid course were held in December and January. Close to home, the VOC fielded many intramural teams, including two Arts 20 relay teams and frtt Storm the Wall teams. The best thing is how many people still show up at meetings and at the clubroom in Maich, even if they are too busy to go on trips. Many a summer adventure will be planned even as this article goes to the printers! Our love for the outdoors and outdoor activities does lead the VOC to get involved in various projects related to our interests. Among the prujects taken on this year: two bake sales were organized to raise funds to create the park at the Little Smoke Bluffs in Squamish. In addition, planning continues for the construction of “the Enrico Kindl memorial climbing wall” on campus, a facility which would allow for rock climbing instruction and training year round. Of course, all the things I have mentioned required a great deal of planning and here we’re all fortunate that I had a dedicated and enthusiastic executive plus a cast of volunteers to actually do the work! To all those who organized, instructed, threw parties, baked, cooked, manned booths or the gear room, wrote, edited, typed, commented, hammered, sawed, chopped or otherwise gave their time, my heartfelt thanks. It’s you who make the club what it is. Well, that’s about all I want to say, except to remind you all that the year is just beginning: one more month to the end of classes, and then we can really hit the peaks. See you in the summer! JOURNAL EDITOR’S MESSAGE Nick Folkard When I was told in April that I had been voted in as Journal Editor in my absence, I wasn’t sure whether to be pleased or not; it seemed a rather dubious honour, to say the least, if the hunted look on Jeff’s face during the previous few weeks and the maniacal glint in his eyes were anything to go by. However, it has turned out to be a thoroughly pleasant task. Although VOC’ers naturally have better things to do than write articles, there seem to have been enough weekends sufficiently wet to prevent all but the pottiest actually getting out; faced with such a situation, it appears that a gratifying number of members would sooner write about their past exploits than work. The VOC Constitution was altered after Jeff’s experience, to prevent future Editors from taking to the bottle, being consigned to an asylum or even ending the agony for good. I was required to appoint a Committee, which was accomplished with surprising ease. In fact, people ltigtic, and I am extremely grateful to Suzanne, John, Mike, Jacki, Becky, Morven, Teresa, Jennifer and Johann for their help. You saved me from a horrible end! Pethaps the nicest thing about being Editor (besides having Executive meetings as a fine excuse for missing the Monday lunchtime ecology seminars) has been meeting people. My almost weekly routine at meetings seems to have won me a certain infamy, so that people now recognize my ugly mug, and I’m sure I’ve made snore friends than enemies (iust..) during the year. To everyone, I would like to say thankyou for putting up with my incessant rantings about deadlines, and to the people who took pity on me and actually wrote articles, thankyou again -- the Journal wouldn’t have happened without you! I hope everyone enjoys reading the Journal -- I certainly did. Have a great year and be sure to collect lots of material for next year’s rag.

Reena Meijer-Drees SUMMER REUNION (Sept. 1988): Lotsa slides, lotsa stories, lotsa goodies. The potluck affair held in the Garden room attracted about 20 people and got everyone in the mood for the fall hiking season. LONGHIKE (Oct.): this year’s VOC classic outing proved no less successful than last year’s; the food was not as good as Brad’s effort in ‘87, but the weather was somewhat more cooperative! Rock school was very popular (climbing at Murrin and the smoke Bluffs, different levels taught) and the dayhikes were also well-attended. Trips went up to the Tusk and up to Singing Pass (dodging mountain bikers). About 110 people showed up at the AMS Whistler cabin on Saturday evening for a wholesome meal of chili (veggie and 2 levels of hotness available) and a party afterwards. After breakfast the next morning more daymps went out, as well as lots of ad-jib climbing. A splendid intro, to the VOC! HALLOWE’EN (guess the date): Susan Curror generously donated her parent’s house for this one; I didn’t go but it was apparently lots of fun, even though the VOC executive sort of left Susan stranded in the party preparations, and things were rather disorganized. No pumpkins to carve, and prizes for the best costumes were handed out “after the fact” to Ed Spat for his effort as a Zulu and to. .and. .as the couple in bed. SKATING PARTY (Nov.): About 30 people caine out fot a good time at the Thunderbird Winter Sports Centre -- unfortunately, no hockey games this time!! Pizza afterwards. GLACIER SCHOOL (Nov.): Held at Joffre this year. With over 50 people in attendance, this was the largest VOC glacier school ever! What a keen bunch! Lots of epics happened on this trip. Thanks to extensive organization done by the VOC exec., ably aided by Eric Smith, Brad Boyle and Paul Kao, everyone attending had gone to two evening “dry” sessions. Things went well on the glacier and everyone got to practice ice-axe arrests, belays and walking on crampons (or, as one of my acquaintances calls them, “those crouton-things”). “XMAS’ PARTY: Well, this was actually held in the new year under the title New Year’s Reunion. Once again a potluck held in the Garden Room — quite a turnout. Everyone showed their Christmas trip slides, which varied from avalanche-dodging at the Wheeler Hut to hellying in to Harrison Hut to jungle thrashing in Venezuela. CURLING PARTY (ian. 13): Not a large turnout. but it was fun anyway. There’s something infinitely Canadian, even mid-western, about curling. .1 want one of those jackets!! WINTER LONGHIKE (Feb. 6-7): Held for the first time at Mount Baker. sure to become a classic! Great accommodations at the Swiss Alpine club cabin just outside of Glacier, thanks to Greg Bissegger’s membership. The weather was absolutely terrific but the snow was pathetic. Two day-trips went out (rewarded with gorgeous views) and a number of folks went lift skiing. Dinner at the cabin was chili (2 varieties: hot and superbot) and there was a singsong afterwards accompanied by Marilyn on guitar (5 stringed version) and Nick and Reena on recorder.

Establishing networks of protected areas and maintaining connectivity between them is the most recommended prescription for minimizing the impacts of these influences. Conservation planning must occur at the scale at which climate and evolutionary changes occur. The Yellowstone to Yukon Conservation Initiative (Y2Y) is one of the world's oldest and most advanced efforts to establish a large-scale network of protected areas and maintain connectivity between them. Working with a network of more than 125 partners, Y2Y promotes the establishment of new protected areas and their management for biodiversity conservation. Programs also support the mitigation of highway and railway impacts on wildlife, provide education and resources for minimizing conflicts between communities and wildlife, restore and remove industrial access roads, protect private lands through purchase or easement, and, when necessary, oppose inappropriate development.

  • Garibaldi Provincial Park 2010 Olympic Venue
    1 Garibaldi Provincial Park 2010 Olympic Venue Garibaldi Provincial Park, located in the traditional territory of the Squamish people, forms much of the backdrop to Whistler/ Blackcomb, site of the downhill events of the 2010 Winter Games. Sitting in the heart of the Coast Mountains, the park takes its name from the towering 2,678 metre peak, Mount Garibaldi. Garibaldi Park is known for its pristine beauty and spectacular natural features. Just 70 km north of Vancouver, the park offers over 90 km of established hiking trails, and is a favourite year-round destination for outdoor enthusiasts. Interesting Garibaldi Park Facts • The southern portion of Garibaldi Park is home to the Garibaldi Volcano, part of the Garibaldi Volcanic Belt and made up of Mount Garibaldi, Atwell Peak, and Dalton Dome. This stratavolcano, so named because of its conelike layers of hardened lava, rock and volcanic ash, last erupted 10,000 to 13,000 years ago under glacial ice. It is this event that is responsible for forming some of the fascinating geological features in the park, such as Opal Cone, the Table and Black Tusk. • The “Barrier” is a natural rock formation created by the volcanic explosion of Mount Price thousands of years ago; the lava created a natural dam for the melt streams from nearby glaciers. As a result Garibaldi Lake formed. The lake reaches depths of up to 300 metres in places and is rich in silt (or ‘rock flour’), which gives the lake its characteristic milky blue colour. www.bcparks.ca 2 Garibaldi Provincial Park 2010 Olympic Venue History In 1860, while surveying Howe Sound on board the Royal Navy ship H.M.S.

  • Report on the Mountain Legacy Project
    Mountain Legacy Project Report on the Mountain Legacy Project Alberta Environment and Sustainable Resources Management | April 2014 Overview The Mountain Legacy Project (MLP) is the world’s largest systematic repeat photography project. Since 2006 Alberta Environment and Sustainable Resources Development has invested in the success of this project, and this support has been decisive in digitizing and repeating more than 3,500 high resolution images along the eastern slopes of the Rocky Mountains, providing critical historical and change data for on-the-ground management, creating a sophisticated digital infrastructure and web services, supporting new techniques and tools for image analysis, engaging innovative research, and broadcasting to a wider public. Much more is possible. In this report, which surveys longer-term contributions but especially the funding provided by ESRD in 2012-13, we assess accomplishments and deliverables and lean forward to the next phase of work. We include a detailed overview (Appendix 1) of the repeat photography process. There are more than 10,000 historical survey images unexamined and unrepeated in Alberta. Innovative management and decision support tools can be built atop digital tools such as the custom-built ImageLabeler software and MEAT (digital inventory and web services). There is a rich opportunity for public engagement through crowdsourcing repeat images and digital and in situ exhibitions. There is certainly a book in the offing that tells the distinctive story of the mountain surveys and changes over the last century. There are multiple research projects underway that are attracting the next generation of talented graduate students. At the heart of the Mountain Legacy Project Photographs are at the heart of the Mountain Legacy Project.

  • Intoduction to SNOW PASS - GMC 2003
    Intoduction to SNOW PASS - GMC 2003 Welcome to Snow Pass. This is the first GMC to be held at this location, and as far as we can ascertain, you are only the second group to have ever camped amongst this group of lakes. Many GMC’s are situated in valleys; however, this site is unusual as you are on the Continental Divide at an E-W “pass” between the Sullivan and Athabasca rivers, this is the arbitrary division between the Columbia Icefield to the south and the Chaba/Clemenceau Icefields to the north. But, you are also at a N-S pass between the Wales and “Watershed” glaciers, so you are at a “four way intersection” and from Base Camp you can access seven (7) different glacier systems. An intriguing local feature is the snout of the “Watershed” glacier, which actually divides so that it flows both west to join the Wales Glacier and thus drains to the Pacific and also turns east and feeds to the Arctic, which is why it is called the “Watershed” Glacier. In 2003, it may not be too obvious why in 1919 the Alberta/British Columbia Interprovincial Survey called this location “Snow Pass” but in the 1930’s (and even ? the early 1950’s) your Base Camp was still completely ice covered! There was permanent ice/snow from the “Aqueduct” to the “Watershed” to the “Toronto” Glaciers, an area of snow 5 km E-W and 10km N-S. Thus, in 1919, it really was a “snow pass”. See the appended “deglaciation” map. There is a wonderful photograph taken from the summit of Sundial peak in 1919 in the A/BC Volume, p.

    TJk< Varsity Outdoor Club Journal VOLUME XXII 1979 ISSN 0524-5613 7Ae Wiiveuitj of ThitUh Cotumka Vancouver, Canada PRESIDENT'S MESSAGE Paul Hooper March 1980 Having been used to the Canadian Shield wilderness of Ontario and to skiing on a 200 foot mountain of garbage by Toronto International Airport, I was somewhat stunned by B.C.. The first few weeks of my university life were spent with awe as I stumbled around campus observing the benign beauty of the local hills. No longer would I have to drive for three hours to see a good expanse of uninterrupted vegetation or dodge rusty refrigerators while skiing on the garbage hill.
