MULCAHY, Deputy Minister NOTES ON PHYSIOGRAPHY AND GEOLOGY OF (Bli BRITISH COLUMBIA b OFFICERS OF THE DEPARTMENT VICTCRIA, B.C. 1961 PHYSIOGRAPHY Physiographic divisions and names are established by the Geographic Board of Canada. 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.

  • 50Th Anniversary Quilt Project
    50th Anniversary Quilt Project 1 Capital Regional District 625 Fisgard Street, Victoria, BC V8W 1R7 250.360.3000 www.crd.bc.ca 2 Celebrating the Region: The CRD 50th Anniversary Quilt Project 3 Foreword The 50th anniversary of the Capital Regional District took place in 2016. To celebrate this milestone, the CRD created a legacy project to showcase the collaboration that has built the region and its sense of connection and inclusiveness. Through this project, the CRD worked with 33 members from the quilting community to design a regional quilt. The quilt is composed of 28 unique blocks that weave a tapestry of the capital region’s stunning landscapes and showcase our community of communities. Each of the 13 municipalities and three electoral areas is represented by one block. The CRD also worked with Tsawout First Nation artists to design three blocks for the quilt. To tie the quilt together, additional blocks were created representing iconic images and locations in our region. In order to create a sense of connection between each block, the quilters were all given the same 10 fabrics as a base and instructed to use those fabrics for 70% of the block. The quilters were then able to choose any other fabric to make up the rest of the block, adding to the uniqueness of the piece. Some of the groups reached out to their local First Nations communities to collaborate and seek permission to include local symbolism and design. The result is a stunning piece of artwork that tells the story of the Capital Regional District.

This document replaces the Monashee Provincial Park Master Plan (1993). Monashee Park Management Plan Approved by: October 1st, 2014 ____________________________ __________________ John Trewhitt Date A/Regional Director, Kootenay Okanagan BC Parks October 1st, 2014 ______________________________ __________________ Brian Bawtinheimer Date Executive Director, Parks Planning and Management Branch BC Parks Acknowledgements BC Parks is greatly indebted to visionaries such as Bob Ahrens, Ken and Una Dobson, Mike and Jean Freeman, Doug and Nesta Kermode, Paddy Mackie, Sid Draper, George Falconer, E.G. Oldham, R. Broadland, C.D. ‘Bill’ Osborne and early members of the North Okanagan Naturalists Club. In the 1950s and 60s much of the early groundwork for the establishment of the park was made by these individuals. Special acknowledgement is owed also to Ernest Laviolette, Eugene Foisy and Charlie Foisy. Their wilderness adventure over several months one summer in the 1960s was captured on the film “The Call of the Monashee”. This film, and the publicity it created, was another pivotal component towards the protection of this spectacular wilderness area for future generations. The Friends of Monashee Park and the Cherry Ridge Management Committee were instrumental in providing information on community interests and history within the park as were current members of the North Okanagan Naturalist Club, notably Kay Bartholomew and Pamela Jenkins. Dale Kermode provided invaluable historical photos of his late father’s (Doug Kermode) early explorations in the park.

Ames, Chair Virginia L. Butler Shelby L. Anderson Portland State University 2016 © 2016 Thomas J. Brown i ABSTRACT Focusing on the relationship between demography and sedentary behavior, this thesis explores changes to mobility strategies on the Northern Northwest Coast of North America between 11,000 and 5,000 cal BP. Drawing on a regional database of radiocarbon dates, it uses summed probability distributions (SPDs) of calibrated dates as a proxy for population change, in combination with syntheses of previously published technological, paleo environmental and settlement pattern data to test three hypotheses derived from the literature about the development of logistic mobility among maritime hunter-gatherers on the Northern Coast.

  • Appendix C: List of Other Park Systems
    APPENDIX C LIST OF OTHER PARK SYSTEMS WITHIN THE PRRD The PRRD is well served with parks of various kinds and levels within its boundaries. Although there are no national parks within the PRRD, there is an abundance of provincial parks, protected areas and ecological reserves. The PRRD encompasses a portion of one of the largest Forest Districts in the province, the Fort St John Forest District which itself has an area of approximately 4.6 million hectares. The large size is as a result of the amount of crown land in the district area. The result of all of this open space area is that when compared to other regional districts across the province the PRRD comes out well especially when regional population densities are considered. As compared to other Regional districts such as: Regional District of East Kootenay The Regional District of East Kootenay (RDEK) has 28 provincial parks, 2 conservancy protected areas, 1 national park, 6 wildlife management areas, 93 recreation sites, 66 recreation trails and 3 Ducks Unlimited properties within their land area of 27, 560 sq km and a population density of 2.0 based on a total population of 56,685. Regional District of Central Kootenay (RDCK) has 28 provincial parks, 1 wilderness conservancy park, 1 ecological reserve, 2 wildlife management areas, 49 recreation sites and 64 trails. The RDCK has a land area of 22,130.72 sq km and a 2011 population of 58,441 for a population density of 2.6 persons per sq km.

Scope and Content: Fonds consists predominantly of photographic materials created by R.B.A. Cragg during his time in Kamloops.
