  • Self-Guided Walking Tour of Banff
    The Bow River and Sulphur Mountain Self-Guided Walking Tour of Banff Welcome to the Banff Public Library! This self-guided tour will take you approximately two hours but, with plenty of stops that might pique your interest (including three museums and perhaps a picnic lunch), it could easily be stretched to last an entire day. Library staff can provide you with a street map of Banff to help keep you oriented. Washrooms are available at the Library or just across the road by Banff’s Central Park. Food can be purchased opposite the Whyte Museum at Nesters Market, and of course there are numerous places to eat just off Banff Avenue. Ask the Library staff for their favorite! History and natural history books you might find useful for your tour can be found on our non-fiction shelves. • We recommend The Place of Bows by E.J. Hart (HISTORY – Canada – Banff National Park – HAR), but there are many more concise guides depending on your interests. • For natural history and just about anything else in the Canadian Rockies, Ben Gadd’s Handbook of the Canadian Rockies is the go-to book (SCIENCE – Natural History – GAD). • For local historical characters, go to the back-shelf biographies. Here, for example, you will find Chic Scott’s excellent book Mountain Romantics: The Whytes of Banff (BIOGRAPHY & AUTOBIOGRAPHY – Whyte). 1 Banff Public Library The Banff Public Library at its current location was founded by Peter and Catharine Whyte in 1962. Peter and Catharine were two of Banff’s most famous artists and philanthropists. Peter was a local boy whose father ran the grocery store on Banff Avenue.

Four of the mountain national parks – Banff, Jasper, Yoho and Kootenay – have been recognized by UNESCO as part of the Canadian Rocky Mountain Parks World Heritage Site, for the benefit and enjoyment of all nations. Among the attributes that warranted this designation were vast wilderness, floral and faunal diversity, outstanding natural beauty and features such as Lake Louise, Maligne Lake, the Columbia Icefield and the Burgess Shale.

  • Sedimentologic and Petrographic Evidence Of
    SEDIMENTOLOGIC AND PETROGRAPHIC EVIDENCE OF FLOW CONFINEMENT IN A PASSIVE CONTINENTAL MARGIN SLOPE CHANNEL COMPLEX, ISAAC FORMATION, WINDERMERE SUPERGROUP, BRITISH COLUMBIA, CANADA Tyler Billington Thesis submitted to the Faculty of Graduate and Postdoctoral Studies in partial fulfillment of the requirements for the M.Sc. degree in Earth Sciences Ottawa-Carleton Geoscience Centre Faculty of Science University of Ottawa © Tyler Billington, Ottawa, Canada, 2019 University of Ottawa Abstract At the Castle Creek study area in east-central British Columbia a well-exposed section about 450 m wide and 30 m thick in the (Neoproterozoic) Isaac Formation was analyzed to document vertical and lateral changes in a succession of distinctively heterolithic strata. Strata are interpreted to have been deposited on a deep-marine levee that was sandwiched between its genetically related channel on one side and an erosional escarpment sculpted by an older (underlying) channel on the other. Flows that overspilled the channel (incident flow) eventually encountered the escarpment, which then set up a return flow oriented more or less opposite to the incident (from the channel) flow. This created an area of complex flow that became manifested in the sedimentary record as a highly tabular succession of intricately interstratified sand and mud overlain by an anomalously thick, plane-parallel interlaminated sand-mud unit capped finally by a claystone. ii Résumé Dans la zone d’étude de Castle Creek, situé au centre-est de la Colombie-Britannique, se trouve une section exposée de 30 m d’épaisseur et de 450 m de large dans la formation Isaac (Neoprotérozoique). Cette formation à été analysée afin de documenter les changements verticaux et latéraux d’une succession de strates hétérolithiques.
