Thanks to Colin Washburn for the heads up on this Ken Jones photo. In April 1959 Ken was building a warden cabin at McArthur Lake in
Yoho National Park, in the British Columbia Rockies. (Canadian parks have Wardens, not Rangers.) Colin writes " I hiked into
Skoki with the old sage/mountaineer. I was 45, he was 85. I never waited more than five minutes before he caught up." AL remembers skiing with Ken out of Skoki around that time. He was a soft-spoken mountain man who loved that country and knew it as well as anyone.
