Julylaugust 1987 Volume 14, Number 3 STEREO JulylAugust 1987 Volume 14, Number 3 STEREO- NATIONAL STEREOSCOPIC ASSOCIATION West Gate of Warwick and Leicester's Hospital by Paul Wing Carrying along some stereo views of places you plan to visit can be a very rewarding experience. You might think that a 100 year old view would be old hat to the local people, but chances are that they have never seen it. In addition to the pleasure of meeting people, there is the challenge of taking the same picture for comparison. It's not easy to do well. One obvious problem is the building or tree that has sprung up in the foreground or right where the photographer stood! A more subtle one arises when you find that the ar- tist of long ago used shorter or longer focal length lenses to better frame the picture. No matter how offer many possibilities.

  • Place-Based Salmon Management in Taku River Tlingit Territory
    STRIVING TO KEEP A PROMISE: PLACE-BASED SALMON MANAGEMENT IN TAKU RIVER TLINGIT TERRITORY by Susan L. Dain-Owens B.A. Dartmouth College, 2005 A THESIS SUBMITTED IN PARTIAL FULFILLMENT OF THE REQUIREMENTS FOR THE DEGREE OF MASTER OF ARTS in The Faculty of Graduate Studies (Anthropology) THE UNIVERSITY OF BRITISH COLUMBIA (Vancouver) June, 2008 © Susan L. Dain-Owens, 2008 ABSTRACT The Taku River Tlingit First Nation of Northwest British Columbia harvests salmon for commercial, cultural, and sustenance purposes. In this case study I describe the current co-management process of the Taku River salmon fishery as it exists between the First Nation and the Canadian and Alaskan governments, drawing primarily on ethnographic fieldwork conducted in the summer of 2007. In the past, Tlingit families spent the summer on the lower Taku River and vicinity, fishing as part of the seasonal round. Today many families continue to fish on the Taku, and life downriver is a rhythmic blend of hard work and rest. I experienced the knowledge sharing, cooperation, and flexibility that exists downriver and caught a glimpse of a particular Tlingit worldview. There exists a sense of community on the river between the Tlingit fishers, the non-native fishers, and scientists from both Alaska and Canada. Interaction and cooperation between these stakeholders occurs at different scales from individual to international. In both politics and daily life downriver, worldviews become intertwined in a dynamic play between the groups. Though problems and misunderstandings can arise at these junctures, the potential for knowledge sharing across these boundaries exists and should be recognized.

    5-Glacier Flightseeing Narration Welcome aboard Wings Airways’ flightseeing tour. Before we get going, we’d like to acquaint you with some of the safety features of this deHavilland Otter aircraft you’re on today. There are four exits on this plane; two doors are the ones you entered the plane through. They are located in the aft part of this main cabin. These doors operate by moving the door handles up. There are also two doors in the cockpit. They operate by twisting the handle either direction. All exit doors open outward. Seatbelts should be worn low and snug while you’re seated in the aircraft. Please do not move about the cabin while taxiing or while we are flying. Life jackets are located in the pouch in front of you or on the co-pilot door. Please do not remove them from the holder unless you are told to do so by your pilot. There are two fire extinguishers. One is located under the pilot seat and one is in the baggage compartment at the rear of the plane. Survival gear and first aid kit are also located in the aft baggage compartment. For your comfort and safety, there is no smoking anytime while in or around the airplane. Please refer to the safety information cards located in the cabin and seat backs for additional information. Although taking off on water may seem a bit unusual, a floatplane is perfect for Alaska. Where ever you travel up here, you’ll see small planes being used like cars in other states.

  • Douglas Indian Association, 2017
    Douglas Indian Association Anax Yaa Andagan Ye ̴̴ Sayeik Where the Sun Rays Touch First ̴̴ Spirit Helper Chief Anatlaháash of the T'aaku Tribe DOUGLAS INDIAN ASSOCIATION Federally recognized Tribe since 1934 The A`akw Kwáan & T`aaku Kwáan Tribal History 811 West 12th Street Juneau, Alaska 99801-1529 Phone: (907) 364-2916 Fax: (907) 364-2917 Background Douglas Indian Association (DIA), is the historical federally recognized Tribe of the Juneau, Douglas and Auke Bay region. While DIA also has members with other Alaska Native and American Indian lineage, it is primarily comprised of direct descendants of the Tribe’s original Base Roll membership originating from the T'aaḵu Kwáan and A'akw Kwáan clans which inhabited Anax YaatAndagan Yé (Douglas) and Dzantik'i Héeni (Juneau) since time immemorial. Some of the clans of DIA’s tribal territory are the Yanyeidí, Tsaateeneidí, Gaanaxádí, Ishkahittáan (T’aaku Kwáan), and L'eeneidí, Wooshkeetaan, L’uknax.adí (A’aakw Kwáan). DIA became a federally recognized tribe in 1934. Through the Alaska Native Claims Settlement Act (ANCSA) of 1971, the State of Alaska conveyed lands to Native corporations formed under ANCSA, but no lands were conveyed to the Tribe(s). DIA’s traditional and historical territory encompasses the City and Borough of Juneau, as well as some areas to the east and north on Admiralty Island and the Chilkat Peninsula, to the south including Endicott Arm, and to the east into Canada in the areas of the Taku River and Atlin, B.C. Tribal History Tlingit people and their clans were well established and thriving in Southeast Alaska when European explorers made their first advances into the area in the 1700’s.
