Senior Park Ranger Bree Matthewman and BC Parks Mascot Jerry the Moose host a community celebration of our local parks
Tweedsmuir Park celebrates 73rd birthday BY CHRISTINA BOUCHER BC Parks hosted a celebration on Saturday, July 16th at the Atnarko Fisheries Pool. An enthusiastic crowd of over one hundred people gathered to recognize the 100th anniversary of the provincial parks system as well as the 73rd birthday of Tweedsmuir Provincial Park. The weekend also served to commemorate the arrival of Sir Alexander Mackenzie in the Bella Coola Valley via the Grease Trail 218 years ago. The Burnt Bridge conservancy, or
what was then called “Friendly Village” by the explorer, was the site where amicable First Nations guides were instrumental in aiding Mackenzie’s transport down the Valley. At this past weekend’s celebration, BC Parks mascot Jerry the Moose was in attendance to welcome the audience, to entertain the many excited children, and to cut the Tweedsmuir Park birthday cake. Jennifer Andy was present to offer a welcoming address to the audience as a representative of the Schooner family,
whose traditional territory is located within the area known as Tweedsmuir Park. Senior Park Ranger Bree Matthewman spoke about her hopes for Tweedsmuir Park in the current season: “The Park is here to be enjoyed by the community, and offers so many opportunities for hiking and exploring.” Bella Coola Area Supervisor for BC Parks Wes DeArmond also recognized the value that Tweedsmuir Park adds to the Valley. “The Park is an asset to the local environment, helping
to provide clean air and water as well as rich biodiversity.” DeArmond described the multitude of diverse geoclimatic zones and wildlife found within the Park boundaries, noting the dry, arid regions that are home to the alligator lizard, as well as the damp regions where the rough skin newt may be found. Another unique feature of Tweedsmuir Park is the Esker Trail, which begins at the Atnarko Fisheries Pool site. This trail is not officially listed in guidebooks, and thus the
Esker Trail hikes were a special highlight of the Parks Day celebration. Thanks to knowledgeable and enthusiastic guides Jeff Bray, Doug Baker, Katie Hayhurst and Dennis Kuch. The Belarko Bear Viewing Station is scheduled to open September 1st through October, and is an excellent site to view not only bears, but also fish and other wildlife. Thanks to all the volunteers and organizers who contributed to the success of the Parks Day event.

New Editor at Coast Mountain News: Christina Boucher Hello, Valley! I am extremely pleased and excited to be filling in as Editor of your local paper for the next year. I wanted to take a moment to share with you a little bit about myself, and what I envision for the paper in the coming months. I first moved to the Valley with my spouse in 2004 after obtaining a Bachelor of Fine Arts in Writing and Publishing in Boston, Massachusetts. Despite the initial culture shock, I quickly fell in love with the Valley’s lush, natural environment as well as the strong spirit of volunteerism and community involvement displayed by so many residents. After working at the medical clinic in town, I decided to pursue more education, and have been away from the Valley for a few years. I recently completed my Bachelor of Science degree at UNBC in Prince George, and was happy to return to the paper in Bella Coola, where I had started volunteering back in 2004. I would truly like the Coast Mountain News to be your paper, the community’s paper. To accomplish this, I am extending a formal invitation to all community members to let me know how I can serve you best as Editor. Is there a public meeting coming up? Is your local business expanding or offering a new service? Did someone you know perform a service to the community that should be recognized? Or,
would you like to know the current standings of the softball, volleyball, or basketball teams? Valley, I want to know what you think, and what you’d like to see. Please feel free to call me in the office at (250) 982-2696, to email me at cmnews@belco.bc.ca, or stop by the office at 1290 Hwy 20 in Hagensborg. If I’m not in the office, there is a mailbox on the wall to the right of the front door where you can leave printed submissions. Finally, I’d like to present a diverse perspective in the paper. I certainly can’t represent the many voices in this Valley by myself. I’d like to invite anyone who is interested in being a paid casual reporter to contact me for details. And as always, I encourage and accept unsolicited submissions for print, but unfortunately cannot always pay for these items. Overall, I figure the more people who are writing for the paper, the better. I also hope to receive Letters to the Editor – these are submissions where you as the reader comment on the content that is printed in the paper. Letters such as these are a great way to express your opinion in your own words on issues that affect you as a Valley resident, stakeholder, or concerned party. Please note that these Letters may be edited for length, so aim for about 300 to 400 words per submission. Wishing you a fantastic, safe summer, Christina

Rock slides on the Hill result in road closure In the past ten days, three major rock slides have occurred on Heckman Pass. Consequently, road closures have prevented normal traffic
flow on this stretch of Highway 20. The road obstructions that occurred on July 12 and 14 were addressed by Interior Roads quickly, with
next-day road openings allowing for oneway traffic. However, a third slide occurred at 6:30 PM on Friday, July 15 that encompassed roughly 1000

cubic metres of road. This event led to a two-way road closure over the weekend as engineers were flown in to the site. Ministry of Transportation and Infrastructure Cariboo District Manager Todd Hubner explains that regional geotechnical engineers were employed to devise a workplan for clearing the first two
rockslides. However, the more significant rockslide of July 15 called for an extended team of engineers, including a geotechnical engineer from Kamloops as well as a senior provincial Rock Works expert. All three slides were located in roughly the same area on the Hill, with the July 12 slide located about 500 metres west

of the July 14 and 15 slides, which occurred in close proximity. There is no indication that the slides are a result of the previous rock buttressing work done on the Hill last month. “It’s hard to determine the cause of the rock slides,” noted Hubner. “The recent heavy rains certainly could have contributed to the damage.” Hubner also comments on the timeline of the roadwork, noting that initial priorities of any workplan conducted on the Hill include road closure and a sweep of the area to ensure that no people are in danger. As well, excavation is only conducted during the day in order to ensure worker safety. Central Coast Regional Distrcit Chief Administrative Officer Joy MacKay
also noted that the primary CCRD emergency program priority is to ensure the safety and health of all responders. She notes that Heckman Pass road closures due to a rock slide are fairly unusual for the Valley, although the road was closed last summer due to wildfires. Bella Coola Valley residents stranded in Anahim Lake and Williams Lake were able to access Emergency Social Services, provided by the Provincial Emergency Program as facilitated by the CCRD. BC Ferries is providing regular service to the Valley, with ferries going out on Mondays, Wednesdays, and Fridays. The local BC Ferries ticket distributor can be reached at 250-799-5202.

Introducing… Think Locally: FEATURED BELLA COOLA BUSINESS: HWY 20 SHUTTLE BY CHRISTINA BOUCHER Local businessowner Donna L’hirondelle has stepped up to fill a gap in Valley transportation: shuttle service across the Chilcotin to Williams Lake. For many Valley residents hoping to travel to the Interior for shopping, medical reasons, or visiting family, the Hwy 20 Shuttle provides a safe, affordable
means of transport. Together with bus driver/ manager Pat Kelly, L’hirondelle hopes to provide a much-needed service to the community at a reasonable rate. The Shuttle runs on the 1st and 20th day of each month, leaving Bella Coola at 7:00 AM and arriving at Williams Lake at 2:30 PM. The return trip leaves at 2:00 PM from Williams Lake on the next day. The cost for a one-way trip from Bella Coola to
Williams Lake is $55, and a round trip is $99. The Shuttle can also be chartered for special events within the Valley or across the Chilcotin. An in-Valley tour for one day is priced at $150, and a charter to Williams Lake is $800. The Shuttle seats 24 people, so a Williams Lake charter trip with a full bus is quite feasible, at $34 per person. In order to further support the needs
of the community, the Shuttle is available outside of scheduled runs for medical needs. With documentation of a medical appointment in Williams Lake, a round trip is offered to riders for $200. For more information, or to access the bus schedule, the Hwy 20 Shuttle company can be contacted by phone at (250) 982-0075, or on the Internet at hwy20shuttle.yolasite.com.
The first week of the school holidays saw between 30 and 40 children daily attending a fourday faith adventure camp, hosted by the Rev. Ann Austin-Cardwell of the United Church in the Bella Coola church and hall. Visiting organizer Irene Champagne, along with her daughter Morag and musical assistant David Dowling, gave the children plenty of activities and songs. The camp
culminated in a concert for parents and participating children were given framed photographs of themselves that bore the saying “God Made Me Special.” The theme of the camp was personal safety, and the children were empowered by the message without becoming too serious or fearful. Despite the poor weather, there were plenty of opportunities for outside games, including a riotous water balloon contest.

I WILL MARK MY BALLOT ‘YES’ TO SAY ‘NO’ TO THE HST As your MLA and a member of the Official Opposition, I want you to know exactly why I will vote ‘YES’ to scrap the Liberal government’s HST • The HST is a massive shift of the tax burden from large corporations onto the backs of average families and small businesses. • The deceptions of the HST cannot conceal the fact many things that had zero provincial tax are now taxed at 7% more. Items such as travel, haircuts, restaurant meals, sports fees, school supplies, safety equipment and household repairs, including making your home energy efficient or fixing a leaky roof. • Not only will ordinary families pay more with the HST, but it will mean more cuts to vital public services including health care, education, seniors care and other social programs. My ‘YES’ vote to scrap the HST is a vote for more fairness. More support for ordinary families and small business. More protection for health care and education. A vote for accountability.

Rehabilitated bears released near Bella Coola Valley BY CHRISTINA BOUCHER On June 25, 2011, four rehabilitated grizzly bears and one black bear were released a considerable distance outside the Bella Coola Valley. Northern Lights Wildlife Society volunteers Angelika and Peter Langen, along with a team of specialists, facilitated the bears’ return to their natural habitat. The Northern Lights Wildlife Society (NLWS) is a charitable organization with a mandate to provide shelter
and rehabilitation for orphaned or injured wildlife in BC. The shelter accepts all mammals and birds, yet has become a special haven for bears, moose, and deer. The organization also provides public education about wildlife rehabilitation as well as research data. “Many of the bears we receive for rehabilitation are orphaned due to human failure to remove attractants,” notes Angelika Langen of the NLWS. The process of rehabilitation includes capture,

transportation, and eventual release of animals, as well as the provision of species-specific food, shelter and medical care. Consequently, the process is also designed to minimize the chance of human habituation while in the rehabilitation centre. In order to accomplish this, only one handler is assigned to an animal for the duration of its stay at the centre, and the animals are taught to be wary of humans in general. The Bella Coola release team included Nigel Caulkett, a wildlife anaesthesiologist who was responsible for mixing the tranquilizers necessary to transport the bears from the rehabilitation centre in Smithers to the Bella Coola wilderness. BC Wildlife Veterinarian Helen Schwantze was on hand to administer the drugs, both for truck transport across the interior and air transport in Bella Coola. Recognition should be given to Darrell at Hodgson Freightways for assisting with lifting the bear cages. Bear rehabilitation expert Dr. John Beecham fit the animals with the radio collars that will be used to track their movements until September, 2012. Also joining the group in Bella Coola was BC Ministry of Environment Large Carnivore Specialist
Tony Hamilton. Regional Conservation Officers (COs) Drew Milne and Len Butler assisted the team in Bella Coola with the release of the four grizzly bears. The sibling pair known as Drew and Jason weighed 170 kg at release, and siblings Dean and Lori weighed 130 kg at release. Grizzlies Drew and Jason bear the same names as their CO rescuers from 2010. The four grizzly bears were originally rescued in the Fall of 2010 when the cubs’ mothers had been shot. The two sow grizzlies had been involved in humanbear conflict, one of which was due to human attractants. Local Bear Aware Coordinator Ellie Archer assisted in the release of one black bear known as Cinnamon, also an original Bella Coola resident. Cinnamon had been rescued in the Fall of 2010 and rehabilitated for seven months, increasing in size from 10 to 40 kg. He was the 315th animal rehabilitated and released by NLWS. The rehabilitation and release of grizzly bear cubs is a relatively new practice in BC. Data gathered from the recent release of the four grizzlies will be used to provide a base of knowledge on grizzly bear rehabilitation in the future.

Valley residents run marathon for local charity BY JOAN COLE Bella Coola was well represented at the Edge to Edge marathon on Sunday, June 12. The course stretched from Tofino to Ucluelet at a distance of 42 km, making it an accredited marathon. Jen Taylor, Taisa Anderson, Carmen Svisdahl, and Terry Corbould all participated and completed the course. They were supported and cheered on by friends and family from Bella Coola who had traveled to the Pacific Rim to watch.
Prior to the event the marathoners had asked people to sponsor their participation. Their fundraising efforts for BC2Africa raised over $10,000 that will be used to complete Stage Three, a surgery room and hospitalization area of the Gitega Clinic. This clinic serves the entire province of Gitega and is located about 90 minutes’ drive from the city of Bujumbura, Burundi. It is not too late to make a contribution to this project. Donations may be sent to BC2Africa, Box 780, Bella Coola, BC, V0T 1C0 until October 2011.

Family rejoices in wake of successful kidney transplant BY CAITLIN THOMPSON In the early morning hours of Wednesday, June 8, Darren Dettling donned the standard blue gown and entered the surgery room at the Nephrology Unit in St. Paul’s Hospital. About 6 hours later, he emerged from surgery less a kidney, which family witnessed speeding by with a carrier off to BC Children’s Hospital, destined for his daughter Challaine. Over at BC Children’s Hospital, Rhonda Morton was emotionally preparing herself to let her daughter go. “It was really, really hard,” she confides. “You know it’s ultimately for the best, but it’s still the unknown, and no matter what, you just don’t want to see your child in any pain, as you know she will be.” Challaine Dettling-Morton has spent her entire life on dialysis after an in-utero diagnosis confirmed that her kidneys were completely non-functioning. After undergoing months of testing, her father Darren was declared a suitable match for kidney donation in late April. Things progressed quickly from then on, with a transplant date set for just weeks later. Challaine entered surgery mid-afternoon the same day as her father. Her mother accompanied her into the operating room and insisted she stay by her side up until the last possible moment. “I put on my scrubs and stayed with her until
she fell asleep,” said Rhonda. “Then I left and tried to find my breath. It was difficult to walk while the O.R. Nurse led me down to the surgery waiting room. We spent the next six hours waiting.” About four hours later the urology surgeon, Dr. Afshar, emerged with some good news – Challaine was doing well! She hadn’t lost much blood during the procedure and everything had gone smoothly. “The cardiovascular surgeon connected the major vein and artery to her new organ. The blood started to flow as it should for the kidney to convert to urine,” said Rhonda. “Then as soon as they connected the ureter from her new kidney to her bladder the urine started flowing!” Within two hours of the surgery Challaine was taken off the respirator and started breathing on her own. She was moved to the Intensive Care Unit and immediately started on the antirejection drugs that she will now take for the rest of her life. The physicians started her on the highest dose, and are still in the process of weaning her down to the lowest possible dose. “In addition to her anti-rejection medications she was also on pain medications and anti-virals to reduce her discomfort and fight infection,” said Rhonda. “For the next three months she will have clinic visits and bloodwork done three times a week, which will eventually taper down to a manageable monthly
check up that allows us to move back home. Regular bloodwork and renal check ups will be a part of her life forever.” Challaine was discharged 12 days after surgery but had to return two days later to hospital after developing a high fever and flulike symptoms. “Her immune system is highly suppressed and anything can easily attack her,” says Rhonda. Thankfully, she recovered quickly with antibiotics and was allowed home seven days later, where she is happily playing today. “It’s amazing to witness some of the changes,” said Rhonda. “Before, her diet was so restricted, but now she is free to eat so much more now and enjoying it all, especially to simply drink water which she was rarely allowed to do.” Challaine also stopped all of her retching and vomiting that used to be a daily occurrence, and is sampling different foods from bananas to hamburger to macaroni and potatoes! Rhonda has also noticed a dramatic shift in Challaine’s general mood and attention. “Many older people say that once they’ve had a transplant, their world seems clearer and their sense of taste improves,” she explains. “Because their body is functioning at a more normal level, their brains actually function better too.” The family has already noticed Challaine’s attention has been sharper: she’s colouring more and noticing more things in her surroundings.
Young Challaine Dettling-Morton during her last hemodialysis session on June 6. Challaine is also doing something most of us take for granted, and maybe even find inconvenient at times: passing urine. “Because she’s never produced urine before, it’s still a weird sensation for her,” said Rhonda. “But she’s understanding quickly and is already starting to use the potty!” Unfortunately for Challaine’s father, the situation is exactly the opposite. Darren is now adjusting to life with one kidney, which is a slow transition as his remaining kidney takes over the work of two, resulting in low energy and a generally sluggish nature. “He really needs to rest now,” said Rhonda. “His surgery was actually more invasive than Challaine’s with one large incision and a few laparoscopic incisions.” However,

Come see us for fresh seafood!
so far Darren is experiencing a normal recovery with no setbacks. As the adrenaline from last month’s event fades, the family is settling into a new routine (life without dialysis) and a more normal day-to-day existence. “The transplant has instantly made Challaine feel more alive,” said Rhonda. “She is now fairly independent and dialysis-free for the first time ever. We feel so unbelievably blessed at this miracle called transplant.” Provided everything is stable, the family plans to return to Bella Coola after
Darren pre-operation with his surgeon the mandatory threemonth waiting period is over, and thanks
everyone for their prayers, love and support.

Anahim Lake celebrates 75th Stampede with community parade

RCMP leading parade through Anahim Lake to rodeo grounds on Saturday morning
BY TED HLOKOFF The 75th Anahim Lake Stampede kicked off on July 9, 2011 with a celebratory parade. Community members gathered at the Anahim Lake Inn at 11:00 am and proceeded down Christensen
Road to the Stampede grounds. RCMP, firefighters, and ambulance personnel participated in the parade. Deana Wood of the Anahim Lake Trading Store also came out to support the event. Sherry Sager and Carmen Zigler
showed their spirit as fantastically dressed rodeo clowns with a decorated parade vehicle to match. Krista Jensen, her daughter Amanda and her friends spent hours decorating their S10 pickup and received 1st place in Comedy
for their efforts. Lenny Leon’s old GMC pickup could be seen representing Ulkatcho Mercantile, and Ulkatcho Day Care showed up with a pickup and trailer complete with daycare chairs and “dollhouse” for the kids. Nick Christianson came from 100 Mile House and drove MLA Donna Barnett in the Parade. Nearly 200 people came out for the family-oriented festivities. Children especially enjoyed the candy that was thrown by paraders into the audience! One exciting highlight to the parade was an appearance by Anahim Lake hometown boy Carey Price. The NHL goalie for the Montreal Canadiens held the Canadian flag while riding on horseback in the parade.
Breath of Life Society has found a new home in Bella Coola BY SARAH GOWANS Renovations continue on what many locals know as the ‘Cole house’ on downtown Mackay Street in Bella Coola, where The Breath of Life Society will soon make their new home. Jim and Corinne Berta of the Breath of Life Society, resided in Hagensborg for 12 years before their vision of creating a place of worship and prayer in a new location in Bella Coola. When the “Cole house “ was available for rent in May this year, Jim was excited to go and look at it. Once inside, he knew that this was the right place to transform into prayer rooms, and there is also a space for Jim and Corinne to live upstairs. Rev Jack Minor, pastor for the Pentecostal Church in Bella Coola has opened up his home to Jim and Corinne during this time of transition. The Breath Of Life Society’s mission is to share the gospel of Jesus Christ to all people in the Bella Coola Valley. They currently conduct Bible Study nights and host the Outreach Program. Once renovations are completed, the new residence on Mackay Street will be open to the public for
prayer, worship, healing, teaching, and discipleship. Much help was provided by the Will Go Ministries of Vancouver on their recent visit to Bella Coola. Will Go travel throughout the world, preaching the Gospel of Jesus Christ to all nations both in action and in words, and they certainly demonstrated their dedication here in Bella Coola. Larry and Jean Johnson of Will Go in Vancouver, together with a group of around 27 volunteers journeyed to Bella Coola on July 4th and spent 8 days doing acts of service including pressure washing houses and decks, and cleaning yards for elders. They ran the Youth Carnival held at the Nuxalk Hall on Thursday July 7th and assisted with renovations on the Cole House.
