Text Appearing Before Image: ott continued explorations in the Cana-dian Rockies for evidence bearing on the pre-Devonian formationsnorth of Bow Valley, Alberta, and south along the new Banfif-Win-dermere motor road, which passes from the Bow Valley over Ver-milion Pass and down the Vermilion River Canyon to the KootenayRiver and thence over Sinclair Pass to the broad Columbia RiverValley north of Lake Windermere in British Columbia. The first half of the season was unfavorable owing to dense forestfire smoke and inefficient trail men, but the latter part of August andall of September fine weather and capable men enabled the party topush the work vigorously. A fine section of pre-Devonian stratawas studied and measured in the upper part of Douglas Lake CanyonValley, and many fine photographs taken (figs. 3-12). This beautifulvalley is only 12 to 15 miles (19.3 to 24 km.) in a direct line east andnortheast of Lake Louise Station on the Canadian Pacific Railway,Smithsonian Miscellaneous Collections, Vol, 74, No. 5.
