A reconnaissance soil survey of the Manson River-Fort Fraser map area (93N and 93K/N1/2) was thus initiated in 1973 to provide basic soils information for this area as well as generating Information required for the production of land capability for forestry maps under the Canada Land Inventory program . Four products have resulted from this study . They are : (1) this report which describes the soils and the environments in which they occur ; (2) soil maps , available with this report at a scale of 1 :100 000 using order form included in the map pocket (also available In manuscript form* at a scale of 1 :50 000), which Indicate the distribution of the soils described in this report as well as topographic (slope) classes ; (3) terrain maps , available In manuscript form* at scales of 1 :50 000 and 1 :100 000 which indicate the distribution of surficial materials, surface expressions, and modifying processes ; and (4) land capability for forestry maps , available in manuscript form* at a scale of 1 :50 000 which indicate the inherent capability of the land to grow merchantible timber . This classification is according to the Canada Land Inventory (1972) methodology . *Manuscript maps are available from the Map Library, Planning and Resource Management Division, Ministry of Environment, Victoria, British Columbia . ACKNOWLEDGEMENTS Special appreciation is given to H . A . Luttmerding and A . J . Green, who as members of the editorial committee provided valuable advice in their review of the manuscript .

Recently H. S. Bostock, of the Geological Survey of Canada, studied the physiography of the northern Cordilleran region; his report and maps are published CI I c Fig. 1. Rglief map of British Columbia. in Memoir 247 of the Geological Survey, Department of Mines and Resources, Ottawa. The divisions shown on the accompanying sketch, Figure 2, and the nomenclature used in the text are those proposed by Bostock. Most of the Province of British Columbia lies within the region of mountains and plateaus, the Cordillera of Western Canada, that forms the western border of the North American Continent. The extreme northeastern comer of the Province, lying east of the Cordillera, is part of the Great Plains region. The Rocky Mountain Area extends along the eastern boundary of the Province for a distance of 400 miles, and continues northwestward for an additional 500 miles entirely within the Province. The high, rugged Rocky Mountains, averaging about 50 miles in width, are flanked on the west by a remarkably long and straight valley, known as the Rocky Mountain Trench, and occupied from south to north by the Kootenay, Columbia, Canoe, Fraser, Parsnip, Finlay, Fox, and Kechika Rivers. Of these, the first four flow into the Pacific Ocean and the second four join the Mackenzie River to flow ultimately into the Arctic Ocean.

After more than a century of geological research, 1 Introduction the Cordilleran ice sheet of North America remains among the least understood in terms of its former extent, volume, and dynamics. Because of the mountainous topography on During the last glacial cycle, glaciers and ice caps of the which the ice sheet formed, geological studies have often had North American Cordillera have been more extensive than only local or regional relevance and shown such a complexity today. At the Last Glacial Maximum (LGM), a continuous that ice-sheet-wide spatial reconstructions of advance and re- blanket of ice, the Cordilleran ice sheet (Dawson, 1888), treat patterns are lacking. Here we use a numerical ice sheet stretched from the Alaska Range in the north to the North model calibrated against field-based evidence to attempt a Cascades in the south (Fig.1).

  • Vanderhoof Peace River
    Vanderhoof to Peace River V *fo'•Caa i VANDERHOOF TO PEACE RIVER British Columbia Canada DEPARTMENT OF LANDS HON. THOMAS DUFFERIN PATTULLO Minister of Lands .-i p Vanderhoof to Peace River British Columbia, Canada ORTH from Vanderhoof, on the Canadian National transcontinental N railway across Central British Columbia, which runs from Yellow- head Pass to the seaboard at Prince Rupert, a wagon-road suitable for motor traffic, 38 miles long, reaches to Fort St. James, on the southerly shore of Stuart Lake. Beyond to the northward is a large territory with many sections well suited to agricultural settlement and other economic development at present lacking in lines of communication. A railway across this district would afford transportation to many sections suitable for settlement and mining and general development. At present there are no transportation facilities and development waits upon them. To-day only a scant population of pioneers are scattered in a few places. In 1920 a reconnaissance survey was made by V. H. Williams, C.E., for the Department of Railways across this portion of the Province. He said :— " The result of my reconnaissance is that it is quite practical to build a standard-gauge railway through this section of British Columbia, and in no case will any serious difficulties be encountered. Construction for the most part will be extremely light; a gradient not exceeding 1 per cent. can be obtained; very little solid rock exists; good crossings of all rivers and streams were found; and an abundance of gravel for both ballast and concrete-work is to be had practically throughout the entire line.

It is understood that copying or publication of this thesis for financial gain shall not be allowed without my written permission. Department The University of British Columbia Vancouver, Canada DE-6 (2/88) ABSTRACT This thesis examines the emotionally charged relationship between First Nation representatives and the licensee and government stewards of forest development. It provides an overview of the Mackenzie Forest District, its communities, its First Nations, and its stewards. It then discusses the institutional arrangements that constitute the planning and decision-making milieu. Next it provides an historical and a local overview of issues and events that concern First Nation representatives. Turning to principles of distributive justice (elements of political theory that prescribe how resources, opportunity, and power should be distributed among persons) it explains Ronald Dworkin's (1978 & 1985) principle of equal concern and respect, and Joseph Raz's (1986) principle of autonomy.
