RIDERS ON THE STORM// OLIVER NOBLE AND MORGAN THOMAS TAKE ADVANTAGE OF THE SNOW AND A FREE AFTERNOON ON NOVEMBER 11. // B COVEY
Shangrila visits to be determined by draw Backcountry skiers hoping to visit the Maligne Lake Ski Club’s Shangrila cabin this winter have until November 30 to purchase their memberships and become eligible for this year’s lottery system. “This year it is not on a first-come, first-served basis,” said executive member of the club, Sandy Cox. This is the first season that the club has run a lottery to determine who gets to visit Shangrila in 2016. Last winter, Parks Canada implemented backcountry closures in Jasper National Park with the aim of protecting mountain caribou, which are listed as threatened in the Species at Risk Act. The closures cover alpine areas in the Maligne
Range from November 1 to February 28. While supportive of measures to protect caribou, the Maligne Lake Ski Club has said that the new paradigm “severely restricts access to this area for our members, and impacts the [club’s] financial and membership sustainability.” To assist with these challenges and to promote stewardship of the park, the club has applied to Parks Canada for summer use of Shangrila. That decision is pending. Currently the MLSC’s licence of occupation expires April 30, although the area snowpack usually deteriorates before then. Skiers wanting to enter the lottery can purchase a membership and fill out an application at www.malignelakeskiclub.ca bob covey // bob@thejasperlocal.com

Local Vocal There are more important things in life than commercial hockey, but if you sat between the benches on any given weeknight in the Jasper Arena, you wouldn’t really know it.
The compete level in the Jasper Hockey League (don’t call it beer league) seems to be up this year—and that’s not really an observation about the skill, more the screaming. Whether it’s towards the officials, opponents or in some cases, one’s own teammates, I’ve been disturbed by the high volume, low class commentary that seems to be emanating on the ice. This is not a new problem, of course, and I’ve been as guilty as the next skater for running my mouth when the excitement gets the best of me. However, it’s early in the season; let’s address the problem before it gets completely out of hand. It’s one thing to toss out a witty chirp or revel in a rivalry, it’s another thing entirely to engage in ridiculous threat-making and petty name-calling. There’s no glory in winning and no dignity in losing if you can’t shake your opponent’s hand at the end of the match and say ‘good game.’ I get it, it’s hockey. It’s an intense, physical, testosterone-fuelled game and it’s bound to get heated. But the emotions are already registering so high, there won’t be any room for playoffs! Remember, guys, when we played minor hockey? Remember when our dads were giving the referees, or the other teams, or the other teams’ dads a piece of their highexpectations-addled minds? Do you really want to come full circle on that disturbing rage journey? Remember, too, unlike the 80s, today your expletive-laced soliloquy on why you think someone shouldn’t be wearing face protection while sticks and pucks are flying around eye-level can all be captured on a smartphone. What do you say, as a group, let’s all try to take it down a notch? After all, despite the fact that we’re wearing different jerseys, we have a lot more in common than what separates us—namely, the fact that we’re simply there to play a game. bob covey // bob@thejasperlocal.com

Science: a process of discovery Abruptly fired from Parks Canada in June for no stated reason, Dr. John Wilmshurst has stayed quiet about his situation while other former Parks Canada staff, civil servants and friends of the science community have criticized his dismissal as another example of the government censoring science. But there’s a new federal government in power now, and we wanted to know if John would be sending his resumé back in to JNP and/ or if he’d be willing to talk about the ordeal. Turns out, no! To both questions, in fact. However, he did agree to sit down and talk about science in general.

Valemount resort complimentary, not competition da’s 150th anniversary with summer skiing, which we think is pretty unique for a ski area,” he said. What’s also unique is the proposed resort’s village: situated 10 km from town, it will be pedestrian only, have a low environmental impact and, at 1,300 m, will be one of the highest bases in British Columbia. Oberti suggested the higher base will insulate the resort against the effects of climate change. “Over time, it’s likely that Valemount will be one of the only places that gets reliable snow,” he said (side-
“Our opinion is that you need critical mass to attract international skiers. All of a sudden you have Valemount and [Jasper] becomes more interesting...”

A multi-million sightseeing and ski resort in Valemount would help attract visitors to the North Rockies, including Marmot Basin, says the resort’s proponent.
Tommaso Oberti of Valemount Glacier Destinations (VGD) believes that the proposed 2,000-bed, 20,000acre year-round ski resort in the Cariboo Mountains will benefit the region as a whole, rather than take tourists away from Jasper. “Our opinion is you need critical mass to attract international skiers,” Oberti said. “Marmot is great, but you’re not going to attract skiers looking at the
Whistlers, the Zurmatts, or the Aspens because of the relatively modest infrastructure there. All of a sudden you have Valemount and it becomes more interesting because you’ve got multiple ski destinations in one area.” Oberti made the remarks a week after the project’s first government-mandated input session, a public house in Valemount on November 4. At that meeting, approximately 200 residents showed up to learn about the project’s master plan. In July, Oberti told The Jasper Local the project was on track to have chairlifts spinning by Christmas, 2016. He’s since revised the timeline, suggesting a grand opening on Canada Day, 2017. “What we’re planning right now is opening for Cana-

Build-out of Phase One, which will include two hotels, single family residences and staff accommodations—as well as the five lifts, day lodge and mountain top restaurant which will be part of the 2017 grand opening—will take up to five years, Oberti said. Upon build-out of Phase Three, according to the plan’s social economic analysis, more than 500 full and part-time jobs will have been injected into the community. Oberti projects those developments for 30 years from now. “We’re trying to make it clear that this project isn’t an overnight boom,” Oberti said. He does anticipate interest to skyrocket over the coming months, however. The excitement at the Edmonton Ski Show, he said, was electric. “The enthusiasm was unbelievable,” he said.

Jasperite Francois Laplante has started a Kickstarter campaign to help fund his Jasper rock climbing guidebook, Northern Exposure.// bob covey
Rock guide author finds support from Jasper Just when Francois Laplante thought he had topped out, the climber and soon-to-be-published author finds himself lifted even higher. The 24-year-old has seen his Kickstarter campaign surpass its goal of $5,000 in less than one week. He originally planned more than a month to raise enough funds to publish his Jasper rock climbing guidebook, Northern Exposure. “I can’t believe it,” he said while at his kitchen table, the same spot he described, illustrated and GPS-marked more than 500 routes to be featured in the book over the past two years. Perhaps Laplante shouldn’t be surprised. Local rock jocks, climbing bums and gear shops have supported his endeavour to pen a complete Jasper rock climbing guide since the idea first struck him. They were the same folks who welcomed him with open arms when he first started showing up at local crags, on sojourns from his post with the military outside of Edmonton.
“I got lucky enough to meet some locals who showed me all the good climbing,” the 24-year-old said. Subsequently, he quit the army, dedicating all his time and energy to the book. The more he learned about Jasper rock, the more he realized how bountiful—and unappreciated—it is. “There was so much more out there than I realized,” he said. And now it’s all in his book—or at least it’s on his laptop until he can raise enough money to send the 272-page document to a printer. To keep costs down yet retain control over the publication of Northern Exposure, Laplante is electing to selfpublish. The full colour book will feature hundreds of striking photos, detailed maps, drawings, historical nuggets and GPS tracks describing how to access the full slate of Jasper’s sport, alpine and bouldering routes. “There’s never been a book on Jasper done at this scale,” Laplante said. For two years Laplante gleaned information from every local rock climber he could meet and then scouted, sketched and measured every route himself.. Knowledge keepers such as Dale
Didduck, Peter Amann, Sean Elliott and Cyril Shokoples, to name a few, bestowed their rich repository of rock information on Laplante before the younger climber would go out in the field. But getting to know the crags was only part of the process. He received Jasper history lessons at the museum, taught himself how to use desktop publishing software and got a sense of the demand for the project from a key market group— Edmonton climbers. “Those climbers from the city will be the main clientele for this book,” he said. Some may balk at revealing Jasper’s hidden gems, but the idea of opening up the area’s excellent climbing to “the masses” is farfetched, Laplante said. He believes that sharing the knowledge will spread climbers out, not crowd them in. Furthermore, the chances of more crags being discovered and developed will increase with exposure to new climbers, he figures. “There is such huge potential here,” he said. “This place could have twice as many routes as it does.” Before that happens, however, Laplante is still looking for funders.

LOCAL FEATURE //LOCAL REMEMBRANCE//
In Jasper National Park, Mt. Edith Cavell rises majestically from the Athabasca Valley. At 3,363 Metres, the iconic peak stands sentinel over the treetops below. Over the years the mountain has been ascribed many names. First Nations peoples called it the White Ghost; French fur traders called it La Montagne de la Grande Traverse and more recently, it was known as Mount Le Duc, Mount Fitzhugh and Mount Geikie. In 1916, it was officially named Mt. Edith Cavell in honour of an English nurse who risked her life to smuggle hundreds of Allied soldiers out of Germanoccupied Belgium during WWI. As consequence of her bravery, Edith Cavell was arrested and executed by a German firing squad. Edith Cavell was born in 1865 in the English county of Norfolk. As a young woman, she was employed as a governess, in England and in Brussels. At the age of 29, while caring for her ailing father, Edith realized a vocation for nursing. She moved to London to attend nursing school and embarked on what would be a lifelong nursing career. In 1907, she was offered the esteemed role of Matron of Belgium’s first nursing school and returned to Brussels to head L’ École Belge d’Infirmiéres Diplômées.

they terminate their activities. Upon hearing that there were 30 men awaiting assistance, Edith responded, “we cannot stop.” It was agreed that the work would continue until the remaining men were escorted to safety, but the weeks that followed were filled with much apprehension. The secret police came for her on August 5th. She and 35 members of the network were arrested and imprisoned for ten weeks before they were tried as a group by a German military tribunal. Though nine of them were acquitted and the remaining given prison sentences, Edith and four others were found guilty of treason and sentenced to death. Edith was to be executed the following day. On her last evening, Edith met with her chaplain who told her she would be remembered as a heroine and a martyr. She responded, “Do not think of me like that; think of me as a nurse who tried to do her duty.” In the early morning of October 12, 1915, Edith Cavell was driven to the grounds of Belgium’s National Shooting Range. There, she was tied to a pole, blindfolded and executed by a firing squad. She was 49 years old. News of Edith Cavell’s execution was met with global condemnation and Edith indeed became a martyr for the Allied cause. In Britain, the news galvanised the war effort, causing the Bishop of London to remark there was no need for a recruiting campaign as the execution of Edith Cavell was enough to encourage enlistment. Following the firestorm of international criticism, Edith’s comrades had their death sentences commuted to prison time and the Kaiser decreed that no woman would be executed without his consent. Edith’s death elicited numerous tributes celebrating the woman who saved so many lives at the expense of her own. In 1916, the Canadian Government honoured Edith by officially ascribing her name to Jasper’s iconic peak. Though under interrogation, Edith confessed to helping 200 men escape, it has been estimated, that the actual number is closer to several hundred. Just as Nurse Cavell stood vigil over the countless men that she saved, for the last hundred years, Mount Edith Cavell has stood vigil over Jasper. The mountain serves as a reminder of her selflessness and courage, preserving Edith’s legacy of heroism for future generations. Mount Edith Cavell - a formidable mountain, named for a formidable woman.

Local dreams
Andes trek keeping her dreams Alive You can’t say Jamie Swallowell doesn’t follow her dreams. This January, Swallowell will follow her passion from Jasper all the way to a remote glacier in Argentina. That’s where the 34-year-old will spend two nights near the site of the infamous 1972 plane crash in the Andes—the accident that gripped the world after Uruguayans Nando Parrado and Roberto Canessa climbed out of the mountains to find help for 16 survivors. The group—along with 29 others who perished—had been missing for two months. The miraculous journey spawned the 1993 movie Alive, starring Ethan Hawke. It also spawned a passion in a 12-year-old Swallowell. When she saw the trailer for the film, she knew she had to see it. What she didn’t know, was how important the story would become in her life. “I felt a crazy connection to it,” she said. “Something about the movie resonated with me.” So much so that she kept returning to it—in school essays, speeches and eventually on her vision board (a tool used to maintain focus on a specific life goal). Swallowell always believed she would someday meet her hero, Nando Parrado. “His story is about human triumph, about overcoming the odds,” she said. Jaime herself has a story about overcoming the odds. In 2010 her beloved dog Breeze went missing for 51 days, in the winter. While out looking for Breeze everyday, she found strength by recalling Nando’s ordeal. “I was trudging through snow and would hear him saying ‘anything is possible,’” she said. Eventually, Jaime and Breeze reunited. Five years later, after seeing that Nando was speaking at an event in Nevada, Swallowell told her story to Nando’s publisher via social media. Soon after, the publicist called Swallowell

to invite her to Lake Tahoe. After taking in the presentation, Swallowell was among a select few to be invited aboard a private catamaran to have lunch with Nando and his family. “I had been wanting to meet him my whole life,” she said. What she hadn’t planned on was meeting a fellow Nando fan who was planning a trip to the Andes. When he asked Swallowell to join him and a crew, including survivor Eduardo Strauch and National Geographic adventurer Ricardo Pena, she didn’t hesitate. The trip, scheduled for the new year, will see her visit the very site that she put on her vision board 10 years ago. “I don’t know if it’s destiny, or manifesting your dreams, but it’s definitely a check off the bucket list.” Bob Covey //bob@thejasperlocal.com

Minor hockey players having major fun in JHL It was a rule designed to keep the midget team in tact—respecting the time and effort that parents and kids put in to ice a competitive minor hockey team. However, this year, the league relaxed the stipulation to let 17-year-old Tristan Nissen play in the JHL on account of his not wanting to play hit hockey. Nissen, who had an injury-plagued 2014/15, didn’t feel like putting his body on the line again, and the league was sympathetic. The league has said they will revisit the issue next fall, depending on interest. (Unfortunately, Nissen was nursing a climbing injury when he started with the Beavers and he dislocated his shoulder in his fourth game—something that in all likelihood would have happened had he played contact. Regardless, he will now sit out the rest of the season.)
Three young guns have taken a big step in their Jasper hockey careers.
Now, whether it’s been a step up or step back is still up for debate, but Brandon Lawson, Jake Delorme and Bryn Malcolm, each 17-years-old, each members of the Midget Bearcats, have cracked the lineups of the Jasper Hockey League’s Beavers, Bongs and Royals, respectively. Their impression so far? That the JHL is a mixed bag. “I thought it would be a lot easier hockey,” said Lawson, who has watched the league for several years from the time keeper’s box. “But i’s a lot faster than it looks.” It’s also a lot more competitive, learned Delorme. He’s quickly learning where the rivalries exist—whether it’s between two teams or individual players. “It can go from friendly to instant rivalry,” he said. Malcolm, who plays on the Royals, a team with a full roster, said he learned pretty quickly to shorten his shifts. He could be forgiven if he forgot not everybody skates six times a week. “If you take too long of a shift, people freak out at you,” he laughed. It’s a freaky league, alright. But Lawson, for one, likes the fact that all different skill levels are represented, “from dusters to ex-OHLers.” What he doesn’t like is having to get up for his first period physics class after a 9:45 p.m. game. But since his teacher plays on the same team, he doesn’t have a lot of excuses to use. “I’m trying to work on a five per cent increase on my mark if I score a goal,” he said. “No luck yet.” Not that he’s not scoring. Lawson’s skilled hands have found the back of the net plenty of times this year for the Beavers. Playing in a non-contact league gives him a little extra room out there to stick handle. For
“It can go from friendly to instant rivalry.”
Jake Delorme, Brandon Lawson and Bryn Malcolm are getting lots of ice time this season.// Bob Covey
Delorme, even though he can’t let go his cannon of a slap shot, he says the JHL is helping him learn to play smarter. “I’m not always trying to just get the big hit,” he said. “He’s not getting as many penalties, either,” Malcolm added. To have had the opportunity to play with the Bongs, Beavers or Royals, the kids had to show they were committed to the Bearcats. In other words, they had to play midget if they wanted to play men’s league.
In the meantime, Delorme’s big presence and strength on the puck has allowed the Bongs to feel more secure with their back end; Malcolm adds another layer to the skilled grinders that make up most of the Royals’ squad; and Lawson gives the Beavers a versatile puck carrier who can snipe. But if the boys are helping out their new teams, they’re getting something from the exchange, too— and not just extra ice time. As the trio earns their spurs in commercial hockey, they’re also enjoying meeting new pals. “There’s a couple of beauties I’ve met who I didn’t know before and who I see around town now,” Delorme said. Lawson and Malcolm agreed. “It’s for the fun of the game,” Malcolm said. “But no coasting!” Bob Covey //bob@thejasperlocal.com
