B.C. skiing soars to new heights  with improved facilities, 'copters  British Columbia's ski  vacationland has jumped  from a few scattered  \/spots a few years back to  63 registered areas at  present and more still  being developed.  These ski areas cover  practically the entire  area of B. C. from Stewart  in the northern section  pf the province to the  Okanagan and Kootenay  resorts in the south, and  from the Vancouver Island runs in the west to  the high ski areas that  run the length of the  Rockies, Selkirks, Mon-  ashee and Purcell Mountain ranges. And the Cariboo area in the interior  of B. C.  Today skiing is the \"in\"  sport for the outdoor set  and tens of thousands of  skiers of all ages take to  the slopes eyerysweekend  to enjoy the thrills of  skiing.  Helicopter glacier skiing, the newest adventure  on skis, is really coming  to the front this year. It  is expanding rapidly,  whole family can enjoy  the sport of skiing.  Lift facilities at these  resorts cover a wide  range from gondola, aerial tram, chair lift,\"Tbar,  Poma lift, handle tow,  rope tow and cable tow.  They    also   have   ski  schools, ski patrols, day  lodges, ski shop rentals,-  coffee bars and many have  special after ski activities such  as sing songs  and dancing.  The larger  resorts   have   overnight  accommodations and all  of them are situated only  a few miles from towns  or cities where there are  motels and hotels.  Some of the   ski lodges  have dining lounges, baby  sitting services and even  swimming in hot mineral  pools such as at Harrison  Hot   Springs,   close - to  Hemlock Valley,  Radium  Hot Springs or Fairmont  Hot springs.  The unique adventure  on 'skis \\is helicopter  glacier skiing. There are  several areas in B.C.  where the skier is transported by helicopter to'  powder snow \\areas on  glaciers. Many\\of them  have never been skied  before others haie spectacular runs laid out that  can vary from two to 10  miles and vertical drops  - of more than 6,500 feet.  Here is an abbreviated  rundown of helicopter  glacier skiing that is available in B. C.  Hans Gmoser will be  continuing his operations  of flying skiers into the  Bugaboo \"Mountains that  he started. in 1965. The  Bugaboos are located in  the rockies. He also operates on the Cariboo  Mountains in the Rock- '\ufffd\ufffd\ufffd  ies at Valemount, B.C.  and also to the-Monashee  Mountains out of Revel-  stoke and Mica Creek  dam.  Mike Wiegele will also  be operating helicopter  glacier ski tours on an  expanded basis this'  seaison in the Cariboo  Mountains from Vale-  mount where- there is  accommodation.  Radium Hot Springs  this season fis offering  Radium 'Glacier skiing.  A jet-powered STOL  (Short Take Off ahd landing) aircraft: based at  Radium Hot Springs will  fly skiers into the Southern Bugaboos by the day.  At SmitheijS there is  helicopter skiing on Hudson Bay Mountain and  adjacent mountain ranges. Horst Saferak of the  Family Sports and Sk\ufffd\ufffd  Centre is combining with  Okanagan Helicopters to  make helicopter^ skiing  available to nearby  mountains.  \ufffd\ufffd\ufffdGaribaldi's,    y^ \/  Whistler -Mountain  also  has helicopter  skiing, a  challenging sport in whichr  you ski the maisslveglac-  iers of Garibaldi and the  adjacent , 1,0Q0 square  miles of the -Pacific  CoastoRange. \/There is  also the Whistler May  Carnival, usually held  on the May 24 (Victoria  ' Day) weekend, whiph  features international  aerpbatic, aerial and Hot  .Dog Championships.

Old Stills SLOW-BREWED AND NATURALLY AGED. Right  winter clothing  n wilderness  By THE SPORTSMAN  Snow camping in Canada is the growing thing.  The Canadian-invented  snow tractor, or snowmobile, is transporting -  \ufffd\ufffd\ufffd thousands of ostdoors-  men, including hunters,  ice fishermen,\" snowsho-  ers and skiers, into the  snow-bound wilderness to  spend a night or a weekend;  Here   are some hints  on   w__at~to   wear  on  a  -^- winter safari.  Modern      fabrics,  materials   and  technical  know-how, in conjunction  -with: scientific studies of  the Eskimo have removed  much    tooth - chattering  from   cold-weather   fun.  \"Why does an-Eskimo  make his parka with^the  fur turned in to his body?\"  It traps pockets of-dead  -air. to form, perfect ^insula tion.  Solves ruffle their  coats ahd^Dirds puff their  feathers in cold\" weather  for-the same reason. New,  light, layered clothing  follows this trapped-air  \"--principle.  Ventilation    is vital.\"  Your head and hands are  your best radiators. Pull  \"off your hat or mittsyor  undo war coat at the neck  jor a few moments and you  ~ will _ soon reset the heating balance. When buying  winter __lot_ting, buy it  thick, .thickness can be  achieved     by    layering.  Down-filled cloth is the  premier material for  winter parkas, bedding  and the\" like. It is light,  \"bulky and resilient. It can  be-roiled to an amazingly  small bundle in the case  of sleeping bags, but  bounces back to its former thickness when unrolled. That's important-  bulk for insulation.  Synthetic fill, such as  Dacron may do the job,  but be sure you have the  weight recommended for  the temperatures you'll  endure. Wool is great for  shirts or sweaters under  that parka, but don't buy a  wool* sleeping bag. ihey  lump and get cold.  Pick a heavy-duty pair  of trousers made from  some tightly woven wind-  proof twill. Nylon snow-  i>ants     and    snowmobile  suits are great for what  they are designed - sitting facing a frigid blast.  . However if you plan to be  active, they don't breathe  too well and can get very  warm.  \"What good are those  kooky-looking longjohns?  They\" look like Swiss  cheese with all those  holes.\" Believe it, those  holes in mesh-style longjohns help keep you warm.  Wear two pairs of  socks, inner cotton and  outer heavy thick wool,  again for ventilation.  Boots can be the regular hunting variety, but  there is nothing wrong  with shoepacks or snowmobile boots, depending  on what you plan doing.  Mitts are the best cold  weather hand protection.  Gloves are out! Separating the. fingers merely  chills them faster. Wear  two pairs of mitts. The  outer should be waterproof, the inner - a light  wool.  Your hat should cover  your head under your  parka hood - toques are  ideal.  In   the   face   of  spiralling   costs,   we  at  Jones' are   doing   everything  to hold the line on prices.  However,  if you've had to pay a little more for your Jones  PIONEER 3RAND   garments recently, it is  because we refuse to  compromise  the fine quality  and  superb  craftsmanship you've  come  to  expect  from  us  and which  we  strive constantly to improve on.

TENT & AWNING UMITED  2034 West IHh Avenue, Vancouver 9, B.C.  A new shelter  for snowmobile  If you're looking for  all - weather protection  -for your snowmobile the  MacMillan Bloedel firm,  has come up with an A-.  frame shelter that can be;  used both winter and  summer.  Drawbridge doors at  each end; make itpossible  to drive the snowmobile  from the snow or from the  ground, depending on the  season, right into the  shelter.  The plan was drawn up  by an MB technical staffer  in response to pleas from  building supply dealers,  snowmobile clubs and  individual owners.  The structure, measuring eight feet square,  uses a minimum of space  and materials. The main  material is low-cost, indoor - outdoor Aspenite  panelboard. There are  four pieces of _'x8'x3\/8\"  for side walls and five  pieces of 4'x8'xl\/2\" for  floors, doors, gussets  and shelves.  The lumber is- mainly  Western Red Cedar and  ranges from 2x6s, 2x4s  and 2x2s down to 1x8s,  1x6s, 1x4s and a few  smaller pieces. Some  hinges, locks, screen,  nails and paint complete  the material list.  The wedge-shaped  building provides a snug,  ventilated garage with  handy shelf space for  tools and accessories.  Door height is adequate but the driver who is  wise as well as tall will  keep his head down entering or leaving.  A copy of the plan will  be sent on request by  writing to:SNOWMOBILE  SHELTER, P.O.

Affected with a half-  mile-wile buffer -zone, a  no shooting corridor, are:  Highway 16, between  Prince. Rupert and the  .Alberta boundary; along  Highway 97, between Cottonwood River and Dawson Creek and along Highway 37 from the Nass  River Bridge to Stewart  through to the Yukon  boundary.  \ufffd\ufffd\ufffd Tighter hunting restrictions is the theme  for this fail and winter's  sportsmen as excessive  hunting pressure and  deterioration of game  habitat has seen the herds  drop to low levels. -  The new- regulations  include reduced seasons  for, deer, moose and elk  in almost all districts of  che province.  Dr. James Hatter, director of the B.C. Pish  -aachWildlif e Branch said:  ' This had to be done because the animals haven't  recovered\" from the severe winter three years  ago - the loss of deer and  elk was heavy\".  Other new regulations  announced were: Nonresidents are prohibited  from shooting deer and  antlerless moose in the  Cariboo and Chilcotin  districts; the previously  \ufffd\ufffd\ufffdunlimited bag on wolf has  been cut to three and no  one may take more than  two cougars. On Vancouver Island, the cougar bag  limit is still one animal.  The B.C. 1973-74hunting \" regulations booklet  has a detailed coverage  of every area. Pick up a  copy with your hunting  licence.  i hat's the big picture  as B.C.'s new Minister  of Recreation and Conservation, the Hon. Jack  Radford heralds his first  hunting season in office.  The energetic and knowing Radford has other  plans for nexi year such  as \"serious consideration\" to the introduction  of a permit system in  hunting.  \"Distribution of these  permits would be on a  draw basis in some areas  if demand exceeds supply\" Mr. Radford said  and added \"First consideration would go to resident  Canadians\".  Meanwhile back in the  outdoors, from reports  received and from personal observation.  Weather conditions will  be the deciding factor on  hunter success this season as in all hunting seasons. The point is, the  animals were very active  in our trips through the  Interior   and   Vancouver  Island     the    past   few  months.  Increased restrictions  by the Fish and Game  Branch is bound to cut the  harvest-but somehow this  writer feels it just may  be a very fair hunting  season on animals.  As this is being written  in advance of the bird  hunting seasons, it's still  too early to tell about our  migratory fowl. Except  bandtail pigeons on the  coast were not plentiful.  Doves in the interior were  on about par with last  year   -   fairly plentiful.  The duck hatch in the  Lower Mainland area  seems to be down from  past years but on the other  hand, The Duckological,  the news letter from  Ducks Unlimited (Canada), had, in their July  report, very favorable  conditions for a good  hatch .in the Cariboo and  TJhilcotin districts. \"One  of the most favorable  years for duck production\" is the way they put  it for B.C.  Grouse (all species)  are not expected to be too  plentiful' anywhere in the  province. Ringneck  pheasants both on- the  Lower Mainland and  Okanagan still fighting an  uphill battle for survival  and not expected to be  many more in numbers  than last year - a poor  one.

Snow Vehicle  Association will expand  its snowmobile safety  clinic program this winter. The first clinic will  be held at Kamloops Dec.  15. The association, the  recognized governing  body of snowmobilers in  British Columbia, started  safety clinics some years  ago, to educate snowmobile operators in safe  practices, in courtesy,  and regard for the non-  snowmobiling public.  Last winter, it held 11  clinics in various parts  of the province. This year  34 clinics will be held in  the next few months. Bill  Shields, secretary-manager of the BCSVA, will  conduct some key clinics  in regional centres,  where directors of the  association will receive  a special training course.  - Ten major, points for  safety featured - plus 10  more concerning courtesy, ecology, and law-  abidance:   .  SAFETY: 1. Speed can  be dangerous - confine  racing to th& track. 2.  Avoid barbed wire - don't  try to get past it. 3. Scout  unfamiliar trails at slow  speeds and do not jump.  4. Check throttle, gas  level, track and lights  before starting. 5. Don't  travel alone, use the  buddy system and file a  \"flight plan\" before leaving. 6. Don't leave key in  ignition - an invitation to  thieves and children. 7.  Install a governor if allowing children to drive.  8. Dress in.good snowmobile clothing, remember the wind-chill factor.  9. Use only solid hitch  when towing  sleds,  etc.  10. Carry basic spare  parts, tools and safety  kit.  COURTESY: 1. Don't  litter, take your wrappers  with you. 2. Don't pollute  lakes and streams. 3.  Don't damage vegetation.  4. Respect property and  rights of others. 5. Help  anyone in distress. 6. Be  available for search and  rescue. 7. Don't intrude  upon hikers, skiers and  other outdoorsmen. 8.  Know and obey laws and  regulations. 9. Check with  owner or authority before entering lands. 10.  Never harass wildlife.  \"Safety of life and limb  has never been as big a  problem in B.C. as in  some other parts of the  continent, partly because  of our association's continuing safety program,  and partly because the  B.C. snowmobiler is  older and perhaps more  responsible than the  international average,''  says Al Horning of Rutland, newly elected chairman of the BCSVA.  Individual clubs will be  involved in organization  of virtually all the clinics,  according to Shields. He  stresses the local club  will advertise and promote attendance at the  clinic, and make arrangements. The provincial  office will be responsible  for the program at the  clinic - which involves a  brief talk, showing of a  safety and an ecology  film, distribution of a  safety questionaire, and  a discussion on safety  practices and improving  relations with skiers,  outdoorsmen, rural property owners and public  officials.  Hiking, cycling trail  may use train route  The Provincial Parks  Branch in co-operation  with Canadian National  Railways is carrying out  a feasibility study of the  CN r i g h t-of-way on  southern Vancouver Island for possible conversion to a non-motorized  hiking and cycling route  it was announced by the  Honorable Jaek Radford,  Minister of Recreation  and\" Conservation.  David Preston of Vancouver, director of the  British Columbia Cycling  Association, Don Taras-  off of Cobble Hill and  Victoria, a graduate student in history, and  University of Victoria  undergraduate, John Mik-  itka, have been hired by  the Parks Branch to conduct the study.  They are hiking the  right-of-way between  Victoria and Cowichan  Lake during _the course  of the study.   i_  The 60-mile section of  railway right-of-way be-^  tween Saanich, near Victoria, and Deerholme,  near Duncan, is no longer  in use while other sections are used only occasionally.  The  CN, in giving the  Parks Branch permission  to undertake the parkway  feasibility study, has  indicated that other gov-  ernment departments  have expressed interest  in the right-of-way as a  possible rapid transit  commuter line for the  Greater Victoria area.  The 82 mile railway  corridor provides an unequalled opportunity for  the development of a  provincially significant  non-motorized parkway.  The right-of-way is readily accessible from the  communities of the  Greater Victoria area,  Sooke, Shawnigan Lake,  Duncan, Lake Cowichan,  and  Youbou.  Residents of the Victoria area would be able  to use the proposed parkway as a safe cycling and  hiking route from downtown Victoria to the Sooke  River. Travellers could  visit a number of interesting recreational areas  including Thetis Lake  Park, Fort Rodd Hill National Historic Park,  Witty's Beach and East  Sooke Regional Parks and  Matheson Lake and  Devil's Potholes Provincial Parks.
