Just as the fall approaches, we see the color of the leaves begin to change to a golden yellow. We have specially designed this itinerary to include some of the most beautiful hotel properties in the Rockies! We have also increased the length of our stay at each since they have so much to offer. Each day was carefully planned so that you can experience some of the most scenic and stunning places on earth—and certainly the best of the Canadian Rockies. This itinerary was specially created to include some not-to-be- missed group tours as well as your own free time to enjoy optional activities and be as active as you would like. Nearly every level of easy, moderate, and difficult activity are offered at our hotel properties. Perhaps you just want to be in the stillness of nature, breathe in that fresh mountain air, and stroll the paths at your leisure.

    SEDIMENTOLOGIC AND PETROGRAPHIC EVIDENCE OF FLOW CONFINEMENT IN A PASSIVE CONTINENTAL MARGIN SLOPE CHANNEL COMPLEX, ISAAC FORMATION, WINDERMERE SUPERGROUP, BRITISH COLUMBIA, CANADA Tyler Billington Thesis submitted to the Faculty of Graduate and Postdoctoral Studies in partial fulfillment of the requirements for the M.Sc. degree in Earth Sciences Ottawa-Carleton Geoscience Centre Faculty of Science University of Ottawa © Tyler Billington, Ottawa, Canada, 2019 University of Ottawa Abstract At the Castle Creek study area in east-central British Columbia a well-exposed section about 450 m wide and 30 m thick in the (Neoproterozoic) Isaac Formation was analyzed to document vertical and lateral changes in a succession of distinctively heterolithic strata. Strata are interpreted to have been deposited on a deep-marine levee that was sandwiched between its genetically related channel on one side and an erosional escarpment sculpted by an older (underlying) channel on the other. Flows that overspilled the channel (incident flow) eventually encountered the escarpment, which then set up a return flow oriented more or less opposite to the incident (from the channel) flow. This created an area of complex flow that became manifested in the sedimentary record as a highly tabular succession of intricately interstratified sand and mud overlain by an anomalously thick, plane-parallel interlaminated sand-mud unit capped finally by a claystone. ii Résumé Dans la zone d’étude de Castle Creek, situé au centre-est de la Colombie-Britannique, se trouve une section exposée de 30 m d’épaisseur et de 450 m de large dans la formation Isaac (Neoprotérozoique). Cette formation à été analysée afin de documenter les changements verticaux et latéraux d’une succession de strates hétérolithiques.

Calgary, AB T3E 5S4 August 2001 PREFACE This report was prepared under the terms of Parks Canada contract #KKP 2064. The views expressed are those of the author and do not necessarily reflect the policies of Parks Canada. This document may be cited as: Tremblay, M. 2001. Wildlife Corridors in the Lake Louise Area, Alberta: A Multi-Scale, Multi-Species Management Strategy. Prepared for Parks Canada. 168pp. i EXECUTIVE SUMMARY BACKGROUND Habitat fragmentation is a central issue in the Lake Louise area due to the presence of a naturally fragmented landscape coupled with high levels of human activity, a situation that is believed to be constraining the movements of wildlife in the area. Human influences in the Lake Louise area include four nodes of visitor activity (the Hamlet of Lake Louise, the Upper Lake area, the Lake Louise ski area, and the Moraine Lake area), two major transportation corridors (the Trans-Canada Highway and the Canadian Pacific Railway), several high volume secondary roads, a dense network of popular hiking trails, and dispersed human activity such as off-trail hiking and snowshoeing. Although a variety of studies have been carried out to further our understanding of wildlife habitat use and movements within BNP, there has been no attempt to synthesize information from multiple sources into a single consideration of wildlife corridors specifically for the Lake Louise area.

  • Sedimentology and Stratigraphy of a Matrix
    SEDIMENTOLOGY AND STRATIGRAPHY OF A MATRIX-POOR TO MATRIX-RICH DEPOSITIONAL CONTINUUM IN PROXIMAL BASIN FLOOR STRATA, UPPER KAZA GROUP, WINDERMERE SUPERGROUP, B.C., CANADA. Nataša Popović Thesis submitted to the Faculty of Graduate and Postdoctoral Studies in partial fulfillment of the requirements for the M.Sc. degree in Earth Sciences Ottawa-Carleton Geoscience Centre Faculty of Science University of Ottawa ©Nataša Popović, Ottawa, Canada, 2016 Abstract Matrix-rich strata (20-70% mud matrix) have been increasingly recognized in deep- marine systems. These beds are thought to be deposited from mud-rich flows in a distal basin-floor setting; however they remain poorly understood, partly because details of lateral lithological changes are poorly known. In this study, matrix-rich strata are common in proximal basin-floor strata of the Neoproterozoic Windermere Supergroup. The objective of this thesis is to provide detailed description and interpretation of the lithological and mineralogical make-up and lateral facies trends of matrix-rich strata in in a unit 40 m thick and 800 m wide. Here, stratigraphic and petrographic analyses identified five facies: classic turbidites; sandstones; clayey sandstones; sandy claystones and fine-grained banded couplets, which laterally are arranged systematically from matrix-poor sandstones to thin-bedded turbidites. This lateral change is interpreted to represent a depositional continuum along the margins of an efflux jet that formed immediately downflow of an avulsion node. ii Acknowledgements First and foremost, I would like to whole-heartedly thank my supervisor, Dr. Bill Arnott, for the opportunity to work on such an amazing project and for all of his countless hours of support, guidance and mentoring.
