Plans for Revelstoke Trans-Canada Highway upgrade due in ‘weeks’ Transportation minister announces consultation plan for Trans-Canada upgrades, including new signs. Local MLA dismisses announcement as pre-poll electioneering Aaron Orlando
editor@revelstoketimesreview.com
B.C. Transportation Minister Mary Polak said draft plans for the Trans-Canada Highway upgrades and changes through Revelstoke will be made public in a matter of weeks. The plans will then proceed to a consultation process involving the city and the public. Polak revealed the news in an interview in Revelstoke with the Times Review on Feb. 5. The transportation minister was in town
on government business and also attended a local BC Liberals meeting that evening at the Regent Inn. She talked about Trans-Canada Highway upgrades in the region, highways maintenance and other ministry initiatives with an audience of about 40. She also lent support to Doug Clovechok, the BC Liberals candidate for Columbia River—Revelstoke. At the September, 2012, Union of British Columbia Municipalities meeting, premier Christy Clark and

minister Polak unveiled a $509-million provincial funding pledge for work on the Trans-Canada between Kamloops and the Alberta border, including a longer-term plan to four-lane the entire stretch. The funding depended on a similar federal funding commitment. I asked if progress had been made with the federal government. She said talks have been going “quite well” but no commitments had been secured. Signs announcing future constructions plans will go up soon, signalling the start of a consultation process. Polak said consultations would lead to firmer, more specific initiatives that could then be put

School district working on video surveillance policy ALEX COOPER
reporter@revelstoketimesreview.com
The Revelstoke School District is developing a new policy on how it will use video cameras installed inside Revelstoke Secondary School and Begbie View Elementary. “The reason we’re just doing a draft now is because we never had video surveillance before,” said superintendent Mike Hooker. “With our new schools it came as a part of the offer.” The policy is currently being worked on by a committee and Hooker said the draft wasn’t ready to be made public yet. He did say it would be based on the policy outlined in the BC School Act. “It won’t be long before ours is ready,” he said. “The policy itself is quite simple.” The School Act says that video surveillance can be used in schools to protect individuals, their property and school property, but only with prior approval of the school’s planning council. Hooker said video surveillance is currently being used at RSS after the school community was notified. The video cameras at BVE have yet to be activated. “There’s pretty strict rules around [how] you use it, but until I have the opportunity to tell the school community how we use it, I just don’t use it,” he said.
BIG EDDY ELEMENTARY THE FIRST TO GO Big Eddy Elementary school is the first on the school district’s lists of old properties to dispose of. As part of the new schools agreement, the school district is required to contribute $2.4 million to the project through the disposal of surplus properties. The district is looking to sell its Big Eddy, Mountain View and Mount Begbie Elementary Schools. As the first property the school district vacated in 2002, Big Eddy is the first one being looked at for disposal. In a report to the Board of Education, associate superintendent Anne Cooper wrote that a consultant has been hired to work with the district and the city to come up with plans for the property. The school district is also looking at whether or not they should demolish the school before selling it, or leave the building standing. All the groups using the school have been moved to other locations. Once a plan for the disposition of Big Eddy Elementary is developed, attention will be shifted to Mountain View, then Mount Begbie.
THEATRE FEES CHANGED The fees for using the Revelstoke Performing Arts Centre have changed following feedback from user groups.
if you’ve got lights we’ve got a business opportunity for you.
Signs indicating video cameras are in use can be found around Revelstoke Secondary School. Aaron Orlando/Revelstoke Times Review
The new fee is now $200 plus 10 per cent of the gate for local non-profit groups. For other groups it is $400 for five hours or less and $600 for more than five hours, plus 10 per cent of the gate. The theatre has been a success so far, with a variety of shows attracting big crowds. Alan Chell, the chair of the Board of Education, said it has attracted some shows that otherwise wouldn’t have come to Revelstoke.
ANNE COOPER NAMED TO CHILD CARE COUNCIL Anne Cooper has been named to the Provincial Child Care Council, a group that advises the Minister of of Children and Family Development on child care issues. Cooper, who is retiring as superintendent at the end of this school year, was appointed to the council by Minister Stephanie Cadieux. “The advice and assistance of Council members is invaluable as government continues to build a quality early leaning and child care system in British Columbia,” Cadieux wrote to Cooper in her letter of appointment.

Brother wants answers in death of Dr. Roger Morrison Alex Cooper
reporter@revelstoketimesreview.com
John Morrison is looking for answers. Answers to how his brother, Dr. Roger Morrison, could have taken his life sometime in early November. John doesn’t believe Roger could have committed suicide, and if he did, he wants to be convinced that’s the case. “He might have taken his own life, but I just don’t know,” John told me during a lengthy conversation about his brother’s death. It was a conversation that went over many issues – Roger’s known steroid use, his attempts to revive his medical career, his relationship with his wife, and questions John had about the RCMP and Coroners Service’s investigation into the death, which he thinks should have included an autopsy that was cancelled at the last minute. “A thorough investigation,” he said. “Answers to questions that make sense.” Dr. Roger Morrison was found dead in his home on River Bluff Road in the late afternoon of Friday, Nov. 9, 2012. Having heard reports the RCMP were investigating a suspicious death I drove to the scene on the private, gated road. There, I was greeted by several RCMP officers who were putting police tape across the driveway to his home. I followed up with police later that evening and Sgt. Kim Hall told me the death was being treated as a suicide. In general, the Times Review does not report on suicides unless there is an overriding public interest; after an editorial discussion, we opted not to publish a story we had prepared on the incident. Last week, Morrison’s death was back in the news when the CBC reported that an autopsy on Roger Morrison was cancelled at the last minute. In the story, which led of a three-part series on a decline in autopsy rates in B.C., John cast suspicion on the nature of the death, suggesting his brother might have been murdered. “The reason I got in touch with the CBC wasn’t to say it wasn’t a suicide,” John told me. Instead, it was to get answers to the many questions he has about Roger’s death. He’s especially disturbed at the fact an autopsy was cancelled. The CBC ran a report on The National saying the lack of an autopsy means someone might have gotten away with murder. It’s a suggestion that Staff-Sgt. Jacquie Olsen of the Revelstoke RCMP denies. “We have no doubt in our collective investigational minds that this is a suicide,” she told the Times Review. As for the lack of an autopsy, she said the coroner makes the decision to conduct one or not. “It’s his investigation and if he wants to have an autopsy, he can, and if he doesn’t, they don’t,” Olsen said. “If I felt there was a reason to believe there

was suspicious circumstances and there was a need, then I would have called the coroner and discussed it further and made sure our investigational needs were met.” *** The situation has presented itself with one concern – the fact that Tim Loader, the community coroner for Revelstoke, did not attend the scene, one that by several accounts was quite bloody and disturbing. One possible reason that was suggested to the Times Review is that Loader was out all night the night before investigating a fatal crash west of Revelstoke. When the call came to him about Morrison’s death, he made the decision – based on information provided by the RCMP – that it was not necessary for him to return to Revelstoke for an investigation. Loader did not return our call for an interview but Barb McLintock, a spokesperson for the B.C. Coroners Service, said sometimes situations beyond the Coroners Service control prevent them from attending a scene. “In areas where there’s only one coroner, occasionally we do miss,” she said. “Obviously this was a very unfortunate one to have missed.” She would not comment specifically on Morrison’s case, citing that it was still an open investigation. The role of the coroner is to investigate any sudden or unexpected death and determine the cause, whether it be natural, accidental, suicide, homicide or undetermined. The BC Coroners Service has 32 full-time coroners and 75 community coroners that work on an as-needed basis. Statistics show the BC Coroners Service is conducting fewer autopsies and has had its budget cut to $11.8 million in 2012 from $17.3 million in 2008. Revelstoke has not had a coroner for a number of years; instead Loader has been commuting from Golden to scenes of unexpected deaths in

Revelstoke and the surrounding area. McLintock said coroners need a minimum load of 40 cases to remain effective. In Revelstoke, the were only 11 cases where the coroner was called in. “It’s way below our minimum,” she said. “There has to be a certain number to keep up their skills and their talents. Eleven is just way too low.” Where the regional coroner is based is simply luck of the draw; when the current coroner leaves the position the next one could be based in Revelstoke, depending on circumstances. When asked if a coroner could have been sent from somewhere else, like Vernon, McLintock said she didn’t know the answer to that question. Olsen said she doesn’t have any issues working with a Golden-based coroner, but said the lack of a coroner in Revelstoke does add times to investigations. A common example that affects the general public is fatal motor vehicle incidents on the Trans-Canada Highway. If there is a fatality, a coroner is often required to attend the accident scene. The delays often add several hours to highway closures when travel time and investigation time are added together. “Any time that’s added on, rather than dealing with it from local resources, it adds time, which adds a lot of extra stress in a number of different ways,” said Olsen. “Would it be better to have a coroner here – absolutely – but we don’t and he gets here as fast as he can.” *** Would the presence of a coroner on scene made a difference in Dr. Morrison’s case? At the time of his death, Morrison was in professional, marital and legal trouble. Staff-Sgt.
Olsen confirmed he was facing assault charges when he died. Roger’s brother John gave me a litany of reasons he doesn’t believe his brother committed suicide, and some other possibilities as to what happened – that his brother might have been coerced into killing himself, or that someone killed Roger and made it look like a suicide. John said he and his brother had become estranged over the past five years and weren’t speaking but he doesn’t believe his brother would have killed himself and he wants answers. He wants to know why the autopsy was cancelled and thinks an autopsy would have shed light on whether or not his brother killed himself or was murdered. That’s why he went to the CBC with the story. He presented the CBC with a letter from BC Corrections advising Dr. Morrison that a man was recently released on bail with the condition to stay away from Dr. Morrison. The letter advised Dr. Morrison to call the police if there was any contact. That man, Michael Darrell Robinson, has a lengthy criminal record, mostly for minor crimes. For John, the letter raised alarm bells. “I’m not insisting Roger’s death wasn’t by his own hand,” he said. “It’s not as simple and as cut and dry as that.” The RCMP was very firm in their determination the death was a suicide. When asked directly if there was any suspicion Robinson was connected to Dr. Morrison’s death, Sgt. Kim Hall, who attended the scene, said, “We have no reason to be suspicious that this was anything but a suicide.” Barb McLintock said the BC Coroners Service continues to investigate the death and will be issuing a report soon.

Man charged with aquatic centre voyeurism appears in court Alex Cooper
reporter@revelstoketimesreview.com
A Revelstoke man charged with two counts of voyeurism made his first appearance in Revelstoke Provincial Court on Wednesday, Feb. 6. Aaron John Winger, 38, is charged with two counts of secretly observing/recording nudity in a private place. The first charge dates to Dec. 3,
2012, when the man is alleged to have observed a female in a place where she could have reasonably expected to be nude. The second charge dates to Jan. 5, 2013, when the man is alleged to have recorded images of people on his cell phone inside the family change room at the Revelstoke Aquatic Centre. According to reports, a staff member observed a man sliding a cell phone with a camera under a

change room door on Jan. 5. The employee detained the man and the RCMP was contacted. The man’s computer was seized and searched during the investigation, however Revelstoke RCMP spokesperson Staff-Sgt. Jacquie Olsen told the Times Review no further charges are pending. Winger has been released on bail with conditions that he is not allowed to use any cameras or video recording devices and can only use cell phones for work or in the company of a designated person. The case was adjourned until Wednesday, Mar. 6, for an arraignment hearing, where he is expected to enter a plea. The charge comes with a maximum sentence of five years. The incident prompted the aquatic centre to make security changes and install

sweeps under the doors in the family change room to make it impossible for someone to slide a phone under them. Winger was a volunteer coach at the Revelstoke Acrobats Club but he left the club after he was arrested. Olsen said the charges do not involve children. “There is nothing that we have that points toward children,” she told the Times Review.
No plea yet in child pornography case A Revelstoke man charged with making child pornography and other disturbing crimes made his fourth appearance in Revelstoke court on Wednesday, but no plea has been entered yet. “There is a possibility this will be disposed of by the way of plea but the disclosure has trickled in,” the man’s lawyer told the court,
“Last week I received about 400 pages of disclosure that I am currently reviewing and I have sent to (the accused) for his review as well.” The man, who cannot be named due to a publication ban designed to protect the identity of victims and witnesses, is charged with making, accessing and possessing child pornography; sexual assault, touching of someone under 16 and sexual exploitation. The man has been held in custody at Kamloops Regional Correctional Centre while his case proceeds slowly through the court system. The matter was adjourned until Thursday, Mar. 7. “Although everyone is anxious to have the matter dealt with, it can’t be dealt with today,” said Klages. “It will take some time to deal with. My hope is it can be disposed of that day.”
Opposition: IPPS, surplus agenda to jack up Hydro rates Tom Fletcher Black Press
VICTORIA – BC Hydro stands to lose $1 billion over the next four years by selling surplus power at a loss, NDP energy critic John Horgan said Monday. Horgan renewed the NDP’s long-standing criticism of the B.C. Liberal government’s push
for electricity self-sufficiency, and its requirement that all new clean energy sources be privately developed. Long-term purchase contracts signed under that policy mean BC Hydro can expect to lose more than $1 billion by 2015, Horgan said at a news conference at the legislature. He based his calculations on documents BC Hydro
released when it filed its application last week for an environmental assessment for the proposed Site C dam on the Peace River. The environmental impact statement for the dam shows an expected surplus of 5,200 gigawatt-hours for 2013 and similar surpluses out to 2015. Horgan

Critic calls late-term highways consultation ‘pre-election’ ploy Trans-Canada from page 1 forth for federal funding consideration. A consultation session will be held in Revelstoke on Feb. 26 from 5–8 p.m. at the Revelstoke Community Centre. “As we move toward more of the design phase, then we’ll continue talks with the federal government around what their participation will be,” Polak told the Times Review. “It’s a project that they have the vision for too, so I don’t anticipate any difficulties with that.” She said the ministry hadn’t heard any numbers from the federal government, and didn’t expect to until the project was further developed. “What they need to go forward with is more detail,” she said. “You don’t want to go out with plans that are never going to take off.” One section of the highway up for new construction is the stretch through Revelstoke itself. The Times Review learned in early 2012 that the transportation ministry had forwarded an early draft plan for changes, but it received a tepid response from the city. The Times Review has requested a draft plan of the proposed highway route through Revelstoke from both the B.C. Ministry of Transportation and the City of Revelstoke, but has been denied by both. In a Feb. 5 email, a ministry spokesperson said there are “some outstanding land issues” with the plan that are preventing public presenta-
tion at this point. Polak said the ministry was “weeks” away from unveiling the early proposal for public comment and consultation. “We plan to move ahead as quickly as we can,” she said. “It has to interact well with the local community. When we get to the consultation, there will gradually be more and more specific information out there because we actually want people to be commenting on the plans that we have and be able to give us some feedback.” What about Revelstoke’s need to attract tourists from the highway into town? Will the highway make it easier for motorists to drive past without stopping? Polak said keeping commercial traffic moving was always a priority. “We’re going to try very hard to keep traffic flowing as best we can, but in terms of how the road is cited and what our plans are, we get that there are huge tourism advantages for Revelstoke when people are coming through and we wouldn’t want to disrupt that in any way. ” While in the region, Polak toured ministry operations and met with senior staff. I asked if the commitment to fourlaning the entire stretch was still on the table, given the geographic challenges, such as Three Valley Gap. “I haven’t heard from my staff concerns that it’s not possible,” she said. Polak said she heard options today from staff about ways to engineer a
solution to Three Valley Gap. “This is going to be a challenge, but I’m not hearing that it’s impossible. I think it’s a matter of exploring what options there are.” Of course, she said it would depend on federal funding. “When we get closer to some dollar amounts, then we can start talking about how that partnership can get shared.” In 2012, the Times Review questioned the transportation ministry about a possible snowshed at Three Valley Gap, but were told it was technically difficult; the base of the road is a loose material that won’t support a snowshed. Polak said the ministry was studying European models of avalanche control and had consulted locally about installing more remote avalanche controls in the Three Valley Gap area. This could avert delays associated with the helicopter-based control, such as limitations on flying in bad weather and in the dark. She said the ministry was exploring “two or three” different remote systems. At the meeting at the Regent Inn, Polak fielded questions from a crowd of about 40 people, including many local BC Liberal supporters. Revelstoke businessperson Brett Renaud criticized the state of highway maintenance, saying it has deteriorated. “It can’t keep going the way it is. There’s just not enough equipment, there’s not enough guys out there,” he said. “We can’t go 10 [more] years the way it is, with the
status quo.” Polak said highways maintenance was privatized in 1988. She encouraged residents to complain about issues so the ministry could follow up. “We want to hear about it when you’re seeing things go on when it shouldn’t, or you’re seeing people not on the road when they should be,” she said. Polak added the ministry had introduced new, longer-term contracts for maintenance providers that enabled them to finance the purchase of larger, more efficient equipment. Columbia River—Revelstoke BC Liberal candidate Doug Clovechok attended the event, and agreed with Renaud that highways maintenance had deteriorated. “We hear that everywhere,” Clovechok said. “I live in the Columbia Valley and that service is nowhere near where it used to be.” He blamed Columbia River—Revelstoke MLA — a member of the opposition — for the maintenance problems. “On the self-serving side, if you had an MLA that cared about you, then I would do something about that,” Clovechok said.

announcement of new highways project signage was nothing but a pre-election ploy, something the government had done prior to the last election. “They put the signs up before the 2009 election. I don’t think there’s any point in putting up more signs. The trigger for many of the bigger projects is going to be federal participation,” Macdonald said. He didn’t buy the concept that the signs were part of a new style of public consultation. “It’s just pre-election. It’s the same as when they put up the signs in 2009. I think that the people in Revelstoke would see it for what it is. I don’t think there’s any purpose in raising expectations. Make an announcement when you have something to announce. To announce a process is kind of ridiculous. It’s what [the BC Liberals are] doing across the province.” Macdonald said the NDP is committed to fund Trans-Canada projects if federal matching funds are available. “There’s no question. Any of the projects that the federal government is willing to do,” he said. Macdonald agreed about issues with highway maintenance. “There’s no question there’s trouble with the contracts, the way they’re set up,” he said. He attributed the causes of maintenance woes to tight funding. He also said the contracts virtually guarantee bonuses to contractors regardless of performance.

RCFC REP ON RCRW COMMITTEE Part four of an ongoing column and story series exploring the Revelstoke Caribou Rearing in the Wild maternity penning plan. As you’ve been reading over the last few weeks, Revelstoke Caribou Rearing in the Wild (RCRW) has a multitude of local individuals and organizations that are supporting this project. The Revelstoke Community Forest Corporation (RCFC) is one of the founding members of this group. To learn more about your community forest corporation, visit
rcfc.bc.ca. For years, mountain caribou have been a management concern and a host of land use decisions and forestry practices have been implemented to minimize the impacts to the caribou. Unfortunately, mountain caribou numbers are still declining. From the biology work that has been completed, we understand that past forestry practices among many other causes have led to the decline of this incredible species. There are still holes in the information that we don’t know for sure. Pregnancy rates are high but there are few calves … what is occurring? Maternity pens can answer some of these questions as well as potentially help increase population numbers at the same time. Foresters in B.C. are given the right to practice by the provincial government. Given that, we must manage the land base and the overall ecosystem. Our actions as natural resource
managers can greatly affect the outcome for mountain caribou populations. We must do our part to reduce the risks to mountain caribou while maintaining a healthy forest economy that is sustainable. This project is where the rubber hits the pavement and we begin an active role in the recovery of mountain caribou. Never have I been involved with a project that has so many different user groups all focused on the same final goal. It’s inspiring to have stakeholders representing diverse interests at the table. The broad range of interests include environmental groups, industry, recreation, local special interest groups, government, First Nations, biologists and academia. These relationships are fostering future endeavours and are encouraging a more collaborative approach to natural resource management in our area. However, for now we are all focused on one common goal … mountain caribou
recovery! *** Kevin moved to Revelstoke in 1997 after completing his BSc in Biology and Environmental Studies at the University of Victoria. He became interested in forestry in this area and obtained his Registered Professional Forester (RPF) status through the Association of BC Forest Professionals in 2002. He is currently the Operations Forester for the Revelstoke Community Forest Corporation. *** The Revelstoke Caribou Rearing in the Wild project is competing for $100,000 in funding through the Shell Fuelling Change program. To be successful, RCRW needs community members to visit the RCRW page on shellfuellingchange.com, sign up and vote. Google ‘Improving Mountain Caribou Calf Survival - Maternity Penning’ and vote before the April 30 deadline.
No more Moonlight Ski in Mt. Revelstoke National Park ALEX COOPER
reporter@revelstoketimesreview.com
The cuts made to Parks Canada last spring have resulted in the cancellation of the annual Moonlight Ski – a 28-year-old tradition in Mount Revelstoke National Park. “We officially do not have a winter offer so we’re not able to directly provide a winter offer other than snow plowing,” Marnie DiGiandomenico, a spokesperson for Parks Canada told the
Times Review. The changes were announced in the spring as part of the budget cuts that were announced at the time. The changes meant that Parks Canada stopped track setting and has not opened the Nels Nelsen ski chalet in Mount Revelstoke National Park. When the cuts were announced, Karen Tierney, the superintendent of Mt. Revelstoke National Park, said they would still do track setting
for the Moonlight Ski, but it appears that is now not the case. DiGiandomenico said several individuals had expressed interest in holding the Moonlight Ski and organizing the event. “We can’t directly offer it but we are certainly looking at ways for third parties to offer it,” she said. “We recognize the importance of the Moonlight Ski in our community.” Parks said it would look towards third-party groups to
offer winter services in Mt. Revelstoke, though the Nordic Ski Club, the most likely group to provide track setting services, has said it doesn’t have the resources to do work in the park. “It’s national direction and we’re not supposed to incur costs, and so that makes it tricky,” said DiGiandomenico. “For this event to happen, you really need track setting, you need a trail to be broken.”

NORM MACDONALD

MLA for Columbia River—Revelstoke
For the last three weeks, I have been visiting communities across British Columbia in my capacity as critic for Forests, Lands and Natural Resource Operations. And this week I return to the Legislature where we will debate legislation that could have huge impacts on the management of our publicly-owned forest lands. Forestry is incredibly important to our area. And forestry is heavily impacted by government decisions because 94 per cent of British Columbia’s land base is Crown land, managed by the provincial government. The BC Liberal record on forestry is not a particularly positive one. While the BC Liberals have been in power, B.C. has lost 30,000 jobs in forestry. And over 70 manufacturing facilities have closed. But they have also failed in their responsibility to manage the land base. As a result, returning B.C.’s forest to a healthy state will only come with measured investment and a clear plan. I have met with industry, workers and community groups across the province. In those meetings, I proposed measures that could be taken to improve the management of our public lands. I believe that there needs to be an attitude shift in government. We need to take practical steps by investing in reforestation of our public lands, investing in updating our timber and non-timber resources inventory, and reestablishing the Research Branch so that we can understand the implications of climate change. We need to update land-use planning by including rural communities in decision-making. And we need to ensure that the Forest Service has the capacity to meet its responsibilities managing forest insects and disease, forest and range evaluation, restoration and landscape management. The investments that I am proposing are needed to take care of our most valuable asset. And these are the investments that people in the communities that I represent have asked us to make. *** Norm Macdonald is the MLA for Columbia River— Revelstoke.

on their firefighting capabilities and other factors. This rating is used to determine fire insurance rates. When the city agreed to purchase their latest fire truck, the FUS rating was used as a partial justification; the fire department argued a better truck would contribute to a better FUS rating, collectively offsetting the cost of the truck to taxpayers through reduced insurance rates for properties across the city. The review seeks to quantify the effect of the FUS rating. Once the report is completed, the consultant will present the report to city council.

Out of the snow The 2003 avalanches that killed 14 people had a huge impact. In the final part of our series, the Times Review looks at how the La Traviata avalanche impacted two of the people involved – guide Ruedi Beglinger, and his apprentice Ken Wylie.

The Durrand Glacier Chalet is located on a ridge beneath Goat Peak. Surrounded by glaciers, massive snowy mountain faces with a spectacular views all around – including a clear sightline to the west, it is not surprising Ruedi Beglinger chose to start his backcountry ski touring operation here. Across the valley to the north lies the massive south face of Tumbledown Mountain, a 1,300-metre face that once released a class five avalanche – the largest possible on the scale. “Ten days ago we had super-stable conditions and we skied it,” Beglinger told me one day last month. It was last skied in July 1989, he said, but the conditions were right to ski it in January. “To find such stable conditions in a face like this is almost unheard of.” Beglinger had me flown up to the Durrand Glacier Chalet early one Saturday morning last month. It was a cold but perfectly clear day, The sun lay behind the mountains to the east as I met the legendary mountain guide at the base of his Selkirk Mountain Experience ski touring operations. He managed to squeeze in a meeting with me as one new group of skiers arrived and another left. He wanted to show me how he operated, how he studied the snowpack, and how he decided where to ski each day. Beglinger’s legend precedes him. He started ski touring from his home in Glarus, Switzerland, when he was six, became a fully certified mountain guide at the age of 22 and opened SME in 1985, with 76-square-kilometres of exclusive terrain. He has the reputation of being a tough guide, who takes his guests on big days and demands they follow his instructions. “He’s got the ability to take you places that you wouldn’t go on your own,” said John Seibert, a frequent client of his. Seibert was at SME on Jan. 20, 2003, when 13 people were caught in an avalanche while ascending the La Traviata West Couloir, Seibert among them. Seven people died. ***
I was interested in talking to Beglinger about that day and how about the La Traviata avalanche impacted him and his operation. Beglinger wasn’t interested in talking about that day, but he did want to talk about SME. “Avalanche safety, for the public and for the commercial companies, is not, ‘we had an accident, we change,’ he told me. “The only drastic change I’ve ever seen was the Connaught Creek accident, which instantly changed the public bulletin, but did not change the commercial forecasting.” Not everyone agrees. Clair Israelson, who was the executive director of the Canadian Avalanche Association in 2003 and is now the operations manager at Norther Escapes Heli-Skiing, told me that La Traviata had a definite impact on the guiding world, calling it a “tremendously humbling” event for the professional community and made it look even closer at things like snowpack development and risk taking. “All those things that drive professionalism over time simply make us better,” he said. Seibert, who has gone on a number of trips to backcountry lodges in British Columbia since 2003, said one thing he has noticed since La Traviata is that there is more communication between guides and clients. They discuss route decisions and the snowpack. “It’s not just a bunch of sheep following a super mountain guide,” he said. “It’s more of a group of people that communicate.” *** Beglinger faced a huge amount of criticism after the avalanche. The coroner’s report said the avalanche was likely triggered when the first skiers reached the top of the couloir and hit a shallow spot in the snowpack that triggered the avalanche on a deep, persistent layer. The coroner classified the deaths as accidental. Still, people asked why were so many people going up the same steep slope at the same time and why were they out skiing when the avalanche danger rated considerable? Why wasn’t he using the InfoEX, an online service used by commercial backcountry skiing oper-
ations to share information about the snow pack? An analysis of the avalanche commissioned by family members of one of the deceased and written by Frank Baumann was very critical of Beglinger, saying that he didn’t properly evaluate the snow pack, that he made poor route decisions and he took too many people up the slope at the same time. “The trouble with any accident is that anytime somebody gets injured, no matter what they’re doing, the critics come out of the woodwork,” said Seibert, who was partially buried in the avalanche. *** At his chalet, Beglinger told me he didn’t want to sleep for three days after the avalanche. He didn’t go out skiing and replayed the incident over and over again trying to figure out what went wrong. “You ask yourself questions. It’s like a puzzle and in the long run it’s almost like a movie,” he said. “You don’t understand, you rewind it in your mind then you look at the pictures again until you understand it. If you don’t understand the picture, you’re not going.” Later, he added: “That movie I told you – I rewinded it probably 10,000 times until I had it.” Right after I arrived, Beglinger took me behind the chalet to the snow study plot he had set up. There he had three boards set up to measure snowfall – one for overnight, one for daytime, and the third for 24-hour snowfall. There was a snow pit where he could monitor the snow pack as it changed over time. “For daily observations, you’re probably wondering – does he take more snow profiles? Yes, that’s out in the field,” he said. Beglinger holds his operations level 3 from the Canadian Avalanche Association – a certification that requires years of experience to obtain. He said he models his snow studies on the industry he considers the best – the Cana-

dian heli-skiing industry. After La Traviata, Beglinger hired two consultants to look at his operation. He said their conclusion was that he was doing a lot right and shouldn’t change too much. *** Beglinger brought me into his office where he and his apprentice guide have their meetings. He showed me sheets and sheets of paper of snow pack data and other information they collect over the course of a winter. “I can guarantee you what you see here, you won’t see in other touring operations,” he said. The one thing he sought to make clear is that La Traviata didn’t trigger any instant changes. “Now, did anything change over the years in the commercial forecasting? Absolutely,” he said. “And it will keep changing. What we’re doing today is probably different than what we’ll do 20 years from now.” As an example, he said that three years ago he changed how they do snow profiles in the field. Instead of digging a pit at a random site, he has set up several pre-designated snow study sites so he can monitor the snow pack at different elevations and different aspects over time. But changes like this came over time, he said, and weren’t a reaction to any specific incident. “The whole observation has changed, but not because of La Traviata,” he said. “It has changed as time goes on. It has changed even before and it will keep changing.” *** Ken Wylie was near the bottom of the La Traviata West Couloir when the avalanche swept over him, leaving him buried for close to 30 minutes before he was dug out, amazingly unharmed. The 10 years since have been ones of reflection and he is currently working on a book on what he has pieced together. Wylie was an apprentice ski guide in 2003, in his third week of work at Selkirk Mountain Expe-
rience. He told me he was thinking about quitting. “The morning of the avalanche accident my feet hit the cold floor and I said I was going to quit on Friday,” he said. “I didn’t feel like we were listening.” Listening – that is what he says is the biggest lesson he took away from La Traviata. Listening to yourself and listening to others and listening the environment. His book includes seven chapters on the seven lessons he said he learned, and listening is chapter one. “If we take the time to listen, without superimposing a judgement or an opinion, we end up finding the information we need to make better decisions in avalanche terrain,” he told me. The second lesson, he told me, was courage – the mental courage to speak up. The morning of the avalanche, he said he was feeling nervous about the conditions, but didn’t have the courage to express his concerns to Beglinger. “That morning I was terrified,” he said. “Every bone in my body was telling me not to go where we were going that day and yet I rationalized the situation intellectually and followed the lead guide.” That failure to communicate, the way people tend to defer to authority, and how group dynamics work in the mountains is one of the lessons he took away from La Traviata. Since La Traviata, Wylie has done less guiding but has still been involved in outdoor education, teaching in the adventure tourism program at Thompson Rivers University and with Outward Bounds. He has also helped develop a program that provides counseling to military veterans by guiding them in the mountains. He said he is going back to graduate school to get a counseling degree. “What I look to do in the future, this whole experience has made me interested in working with people in the mountains – but not just for fun,” he said.

Revelstoke city council is scheduled to take on many new and some returning issues at their Feb. 12 meeting. Here’s a preview of some of the issues, as well as other municipal business on the spring
Bureaucratic snag for new Rod & Gun Club range
Gun blasts and ricochets can still be heard coming from Bullet Basin
on Camozzi Road, despite a fiveyear effort by the Revelstoke Rod & Gun Club to relocate to a new, bigger range in the Westside Road area. The club’s new range plans are no secret; they’ve been mentioned in Times Review stories before. New residences have sprung up
near the long-standing gun range; both the club and the neighbouring residences would like the range to move, but there’s a jam. In a letter to council, club president Gary Krestinsky asks for support helping the club lobby the provincial government for final

approval of a nominal-rate tenure they’ve secured on the other side of town. Because of a high value of the land, the final say goes right to the top – the provincial government cabinet. The club is writing council to ask for help getting the approval expedited and is concerned the provincial cabinet may not get to the file before the election – causing more delays until 2014. They’re concerned about safety and property values. Houses are going up around the range and slackcountry skiers on RMR sometimes emerge from the glades in the forest behind the range. Council has also received a letter from neighbourhood residents, asking them to support the club’s efforts to relocate the range.
Suprise $600,000 bill for failing golf club buildings An engineering review of the cityowned buildings at the Revelstoke Golf Club have turned up serious issues. One maintenance building has been closed for use due to serious engineering woes, and another maintenance building also has big problems. The main clubhouse building has structural issues with the beams on the second floor, in addition to other concerns, such as needed electrical and plumbing repairs. A city staff report notes the city faces potential legal exposure if something went wrong. Council will mull over two reports – one from staff and another from an engineering firm, then decide what to do. The solutions look to be costly. The staff report estimates the total costs to be $592,000, which will have financial implications for the budget process.

City wants to cut community centre spruces It’s an eco-dilemma. City hall wants to chop down the two big spruce trees next to the Seniors’ Centre at the Revelstoke Community Centre. Why? So they can put in a bus stop to make public transit more accessible for seniors, who’ve requested a stop closer to the centre. The city plans to add some bushes and trees around the new stop. However, the city’s environmental advisory committee and the North Columbia Environmental Society oppose the plan, calling it a loss of yet more trees in Revelstoke’s urban forest. They want an alternate location for the bus stop that doesn’t require cutting the trees.

Free flu shots for Revelstoke?
Those suffering through this year’s long, nasty flu may get a break next year – maybe. The city’s health advisory committee wants council to request that the provincial government provide flu shots for free next year, arguing the government could actually save money on health care costs by providing free flu shots. They want council to write health authorities and ask for free shots next year. Currently, many people do
A survey conducted as part of the Integrated Community Sustainability Plan found that affordability was the top issue for most. The ICSP team is hosting an open house exploring results on Feb. 21 at the Revelstoke Community Centre. Consultant Cindy Pearce provided the following info on the results: We often talk about the growing differences in the community with new, younger residents and retirees. One thing that draws us together is our concern about affordability. Whether survey respondents were young or old, earning less than $25,000 or over $150,000, were a newcomer or lived here almost all of their lives, the high cost of living or ability to pay for City services, and affordable housing were at the top of their list of the most important issues that need attention – consistently identified as a top priority by a wide margin. The 2012 Revelstoke Poverty Reduction Strategy provides hints
why – food costs are 14% higher than the BC average, housing prices have stabilized somewhat but at 30% higher than before the resort development, rental housing prices are the highest in the region and are up 52 – 150% since 2006, taxes continue to rise incrementally and we’ve recently learned about gas prices differences in the local
media. Because of this, a family of four needs to earn more than $66,000 per year - before taxes, or a minimum of about $36/hour working full time to just make ends meet in Revelstoke. All this means 1,170 or 32% of households are either struggling to meet their needs or barely coping.

RSS basketball teams head for playoffs Times Review staff
A dwindling roster means the Revelstoke Secondary School senior girls basketball team won’t be competing in the playoffs when they start up this week, despite qualifying. A combination of injuries and other issues has seen the team dwindle to only four players down from nine, to the point where it dressed some junior girl players for its final regular season game against Fulton last Thursday. Despite the shrinking roster, the team finished with a .500 record and qualified for the playoffs, said coach Rob Evans. The RSS junior boys basketball team will be starting its playoff run at some point this week after finishing in fourth place in the North Okanagan Zone. The start date of the playoffs wasn’t available as of press Courtney Smith shoots for the basket during RSS’ 41-58 loss to Fulton time. last Thursday.

about increased traffic on Highway 23 and delays at the ferry that could cost him business. He was also worried about increased motorized traffic use on the flats near his property. “There’s more and more people spreading out on those vehicles over all the area between Revelstoke and the ferries,” he said. Thomson said she agreed with Hueppi and also asked if motorboat traffic at the development could be regulated. Ilkay spoke up, saying all the trails in his property would be non-motorized and that no ATVs or dirt bikes would be able to access the flats through his property. He did say there would be staging areas set up for snowmobilers and ATVers to access the backcountry beyond the property. Lastly, Brian Gadbois, a member of the Area B Advisory Planning Commission said he wanted to make sure there were no cost burdens added on to residents in Area B. He also said there needed to be some assurance that there would adequate services and retail space available as the development grows. He noted that at full build out, it would compare in size to Sicamous. All the feedback received will now be reviewed by CSRD staff. A report is expected to go in front of the board of the CSRD at its meeting on March 21. Then, it will be given third reading and, if passed, will then be sent to Victoria for ministry approval. After that, the bylaw will come back to the regional district for final adoption.

Grizzlies win thriller to salvage week
5-4 comeback win in double-overtime over Nelson gives Grizzlies only win out of three games Alex Cooper
reporter@revelstoketimesreview.com
For almost two periods, it looked like exactly what you’d expect from a game between a team battling for first overall and a team in the middle of the standings. The Nelson Leafs had built up a 4-1 lead over the Revelstoke Grizzlies early in the second period, in part due to some lucky bounces, partly due to some questionable calls. As Nelson defended the lead, they looked just a bit bigger and a bit faster than Revelstoke. Then, with 93 seconds to go in the second period, Matthew Naka’s stick came up, cutting Darnel St. Pierre’s chin and earning Naka a four-minute doubleminor. Ten seconds into the ensuing power play, Dylan Ossman scored for the Grizzlies to make the score 4-2 heading into the third period. “In between periods, I knew we had 37 seconds left (on the power play), and I said, ‘That’s plenty of time to get another one,’” coach Kevin Kraus said after the game. “They went out there and did that and it put a bit of doubt in Nelson’s head.” Ossman scored again 31 seconds into the third, whacking
home a rebound, to make the score 4-3. From that point on, it was a back and forth game, with Nelson holding on to the lead until the final 90 seconds. With the goalie pulled and the faceoff in the offensive zone, Revelstoke’s big line came out – Brayden Beckley, Austin Donaldson and Dylan Ossman, with Tyler Reay as the extra attacker. Beckley won the faceoff, the puck landed on Reay’s stick and the 20-year-old veteran fired a shot that beat Leafs’ goaltender Marcus Beesley. The first overtime of 4-on-4 solved nothing. In the second overtime, Kraus started with his top line. Nelson had the first chance, but it was broken up by Ossman, standing in as a defenceman. The play went the other way, and Beckley managed to break through the Nelson defence, firing a wrister past Beesley to give Revelstoke a dramatic 5-4 win. “I don’t think I’ve been that excited on the bench in a while,” said Kraus. “I like winning. Winning – we talked about that before the game. I challenged them to make sure they feel better after tonight’s game. Winning is fun, and you get on a bit of a hot streak because winning is contagious.”
The win salvaged the Grizzlies’ week, which started with last Wednesday with a 4-3 loss to the last-place Chase Heat at home. On Friday, in Armstrong, Revelstoke lost 5-2 to the division-leading North Okanagan Knights. With the Grizzlies heading into their final three games of the regular season this weekend, the key for the team will be to build on the win. Several times this season the Grizzlies have followed up big wins with disappointing losses. “Now we look forward to playoffs. I can bring the playoff scenario into the picture. You have three bad games in a row and your season is pretty much done,” said Kraus. “Going into next weekend you preach that the little things need to be done correct, especially in playoffs.” Revelstoke wraps up the regular season with games at home against the Kamloops Storm on Friday, in Kamloops on Saturday, and back at home against the Penticton Lakers on Sunday. Fans can skate with the Grizzlies after Sunday’s game. Revelstoke is set to play the Sicamous Eagles in the first round, with the series starting in Sicamous on Friday, Feb. 21.
