"What is V.O.C?" This question is difficult to answer. V.O.C. is a group of people interested in the outdoors bounded together by common interests and friendship. I feel that V.O.C. not only provides an outlet for people to hike, climb, ski, build trails and assist with conservation projects, but also offers a basis for attaining new friends and companionship. It is this feeling of group participation which has enabled us to build our chalet at Whistler Mountain.

Box 156 Un ? ve rs i ty Stat i on Seattle, './n. 98 105 SCRIPT FOR NORTH CASCAOES SLIDE SHOW (75 SI Ides) I ntroduct Ion : The North Cascades fiountatn Range In the State of VJashington Is a great tangled chain of knotted peaks and spires, glaciers and rivers, lakes, forests, and meadov;s, stretching for a 150 miles - roughly from Pt. fiainier National Park north to the Canadian Border, The h undreds of sharp spiring mountain peaks, many of them still unnamed and relatively unexplored, rise from near sea level elevations to seven to ten thousand feet. On the flanks of the mountains are 519 glaciers, in 9 3 square mites of ice - three times as much living ice as in all the rest of the forty-eight states put together. The great river valleys contain the last remnants of the magnificent Pacific Northwest Rain Forest of immense Douglas Fir, cedar, and hemlock. f'oss and ferns carpet the forest floor, and wild• life abounds. The great rivers and thousands of streams and lakes run clear and pure still; the nine thousand foot deep trencli contain• ing 55 mile long Lake Chelan is one of tiie deepest canyons in the world, from lake bottom to mountain top, in 1937 Park Service Study Report declared that the North Cascades, if created into a National Park, would "outrank in scenic quality any existing National Park in the United States and any possibility for such a park." The seven iiiitlion acre area of the North Cascades is almost entirely Fedo rally owned, and managed by the United States Forest Service, an agency of the Department of Agriculture, The Forest Ser• vice operates under the policy of "multiple use", which permits log• ging, mining, grazing, hunting, wt Iderness, and alI forms of recrea• tional use, Hov/e ve r , the 1937 Park Study Report rec ornmen d ed the creation of a three million acre Ice Peaks National Park ombracing all of the great volcanos of the North Cascades and most of the rest of the superlative scenery.

    Dendrohydrological reconstruction and hydroclimatic variability in southwestern British Columbia, Canada by Bryan J.

Supervisory Committee Dendrohydrological reconstruction and hydroclimatic variability in southwestern British Columbia, Canada by Bryan J. Mood B.Sc., Mount Allison University, 2013 M.Sc., University of Victoria, 2015 Supervisory Committee Dr. Dan J. Smith (Department of Geography) Supervisor Dr. David Atkinson (Department of Geography) Departmental Member Dr. Tobi Gardner (Victoria Capital Regional District) Outside Member ii Abstract Supervisory Committee Dr. Dan J. Smith (Department of Geography) Supervisor Dr. David Atkinson (Department of Geography) Departmental Member Dr. Tobi Gardner (Victoria Capital Regional District) Outside Member The hydrology of southwestern British Columbia is influenced by the region’s mountainous topography and climate oscillations generated from the Pacific Ocean. While much of the region is characterized as a temperate rainforest, recent summers are defined by record-breaking droughts that focus attention on the threat to regional water supply security likely to accompany future climate changes. The limited length and distribution of hydrological records in southwestern British Columbia provide poor context for resource managers tasked with developing policy and water management strategies. The purpose of the dissertation was to describe long-term variability in several key hydroclimatic variables and hydroecological interactions that may be used in updated water resource policy and management strategies.

  • Garibaldi Lake (Saturday, August 6, 2016)
    BMN HIKE REPORT Garibaldi Lake (Saturday, August 6, 2016) by Terry Puls View at the outlet of Garibaldi Lake, looking back toward Castle Towers Mountain and Mt. Carr. Terry Puls photo. Even an early 6:00 am start did not deter a group of BMN hikers from our August hike to Garibaldi Provincial Park to visit Taylor Meadows and Garibaldi Lake. Eleven of us met at our meeting location in Coquitlam under clear skies, though the air had a chill to it that would prove to provide the group with comfortable temperatures for the hike. Shortly after 6:00 we headed off by car to the trailhead where we would meet four others. Upon arriving at the Rubble Creek trailhead, we were greeted by two park rangers who warned us that the area was extremely busy and that there was a bear in the area. We never saw any signs of the bear; however, the crowds were certainly present. Even with our early start the parking lots were near capacity. After a quick introduction we headed off on our journey. The trail is in great shape and at a favourable grade, so we were able to make it to the 6 km junction fairly quickly, while enjoying the sights of some fairly impressive Douglas-fir trees along the way. Once at the 6 km junction, we regathered the group and, after a short break, headed for Taylor Meadows. Upon entering the Taylor Meadows area, some of our party caught a glimpse of a grouse alongside the trail. Once at the meadows, the views start to open up and we enjoyed the view of the Black Tusk and some of the other peaks in the area.
