In fact, the Tahltan First Nations are known as the keepers of the land or “Dena nenn Sogga neh ‘ine” in their traditional language. Using the obsidian rock created by the lava flows of Mount Edziza to make weapons and tools, the Tahltan were able to hunt, trade with neighboring First Nations, and live off the land for generations. This connection with the land is still very much alive today in the Tahltan Territory. In 1838, a Hudson’s Bay Company’s post was established at the source of a mountain stream, a place known as “Talh’ah”, or Head of the Lake by the Tahltan. The post at Dease Lake, as it was called, became a popular stop on the gold rush trail in 1864 and 1873 and even more so later during the Klondike Gold Rush with the Stikine River serving as the major transport route inland to the Yukon. Tahltan Territory was not accessible by road until 1972 when Highway 37 was completed, running north along the Iskut River and Lakes to Dease Lake, Cassiar and the Yukon. There are three Tahltan communities today THE STIKINE WELCOMES YOU WELCOMES THE STIKINE Iskut (Luwe Chon), Dease Lake (Talh’ah) and Telegraph Creek (Tlegohin).

  • Holocene Tephras in Lake Cores from Northern British Columbia, Canada
    935 Holocene tephras in lake cores from northern British Columbia, Canada Thomas R. Lakeman, John J. Clague, Brian Menounos, Gerald D. Osborn, Britta J.L. Jensen, and Duane G. Froese Abstract: Sediment cores recovered from alpine and subalpine lakes up to 250 km apart in northern British Columbia con- tain five previously unrecognized tephras. Two black phonolitic tephras, each 5–10 mm thick, occur within 2–4 cm of each other in basal sediments from seven lakes in the Finlay River – Dease Lake area. The upper and lower Finlay tephras are slightly older than 10 220 – 10 560 cal year B.P. and likely originate from two closely spaced eruptions of one or two large volcanoes in the northern Cordilleran volcanic province. The Finlay tephras occur at the transition between deglacial sediments and organic-rich postglacial mud in the lake cores and, therefore, closely delimit the termination of the Fraser Glaciation in northern British Columbia. Sediments in Bob Quinn Lake, which lies on the east edge of the northern Coast Mountains, contain two black tephras that differ in age and composition from the Finlay tephras. The lower Bob Quinn tephra is 3–4 mm thick, basaltic in composition, and is derived from an eruption in the Iskut River volcanic field about 9400 cal years ago. The upper Bob Quinn tephra is 12 mm thick, trachytic in composition, and probably 7000–8000 cal years old. A fifth tephra occurs as a cryptotephra near the top of two cores from the Finlay River area and is correlated to the east lobe of the White River tephra (ca.

The State also applied for lands underlying "all named interconnecting sloughs including Binkleys Slough, Red Slough, Guerin Slough, King Slough, Andrew Slough, Hooligan Slough, Shakes Slough, Shakes Lake, North Arm, and Ketili River, between the ordinary high water lines of the left and right banks .... " The State included with its application a legal description of the river, supporting evidence, and a map dated April 5, 2004 showing the Stikine River.l The State's submissions are more fully described in Attachment A. On June 4, 2007, the State submitted additional information in support of its application for the bed ofthe Stikine River. In this letter, the State asserted that the Tongass National Forest did not include the beds of navigable waters within the exterior boundaries of the reserve and, therefore, did not defeat the State's title to the bed ofthe navigable Stikine River.2 As the State's evidence shows, the Stikine River has been used almost continuously as a highway of commerce since before the Purchase of Alaska in 1867. Both Great Britain and the United States recognized the river's importance as a highway in the Washington Treaty of May 8, 1871.

  • Herent and Collective Aboriginal Title and Rights Shared by All Tahltan People
    BACKGROUNDER Information about the Conservancy, Park and Partners History on the conservancy: The Cassiar Iskut-Stikine Land and Resource Management Plan (LRMP), which was developed in 2000 and encompasses 5.2 million hectares, recommended the establishment of several new protected areas in northwestern B.C. The LRMP also recommended that if the mineral tenures in an area next to Mount Edziza Provincial Park became inactive, the area should be added to the park. Rather than adding the Ice Mountain area to the existing Mount Edziza Park, recent government-to- government discussions with the Tahltan recommended the area be designated as a conservancy. Conservancies are established to explicitly recognize the importance of an area to First Nations for social, ceremonial and cultural uses. They also enable the continuation of traditional Aboriginal uses and provide flexibility to ensure opportunities for low impact, compatible economic activities. The first conservancies in B.C. were designated in 2006 following government-to-government negotiations with First Nations on land use plans for the central and north coast. Mount Edziza Provincial Park: Mount Edziza Provincial Park was established in 1972 and spans more than 230,000 hectares of the Tahltan Highlands. The remote park, which can only be accessed by trails or a float plane, showcases a spectacular volcanic landscape that includes lava flows, basalt plateaus, cinder fields and cinder cones. The Mount Edziza area has been a major source of obsidian for Indigenous people for the last 9,000 to 10,000 years and is highly valued by the Tahltan people. Obsidian is a volcanic glass-like rock that has many uses including arrowheads and various types of knives.
