The new printing has the latest species names, geological data and recreational info. All known errors were corrected.

Some new ones have since been found , so you may wish to pencil in the following corrections and updates.

Page 131, second-to-last paragraph, should read, "The Gates has been mined for coal at Nordegg, Cadomin, Luscar, Pocahontas (in eastern Jasper National Park), Grande Cache and Tumbler Ridge. Dinosaur tracks can be seen in Gates rock around Tumbler Ridge. The Gething is also coal-bearing, but the seams are thick enough to be worth mining only from the Sukunka River north to the Peace."

Page 174, in the table about hot springs, under item 24, Kinbasket Lake Hot Springs, a sulphurous odor has been reported.

Page 635, second-to-last line in the black-bear item, change “tgime” to “time.”

Page 693, in the item for 1845 about Father Pierre-Jean de Smet, he reported coal not from the Elk River around Fernie -- he did not reach this area -- but from exposures along the Kootenay River in the southern Rocky Mountain Trench, where coal occurs in the Kishenehn Formation, page 143.

Page 695, in the item for 1872, third paragraph, change "Sanford" to "Sandford." (Can't believe how long I've been misspelling Fleming's first name!)
