Come 1932 and the paralysing Pass-wide strike, CPs subsidiary, Consolidated Mining and Smelting Company, Limited (CM&S), was finally finding buyers for the copper and zinc it was producing at its sprawling complex at Trail, B.C., and was in need of increasing quantities of coke. The oldest relics are stone tools found on a rock ridge outside. Even at that rate the owners figured that they were under producing by half and, with a fat Balkan coke contract on the table and just awaiting a few additional signatures, tore into 1914 with a will. The Company already supplied a little 15-bed hospital kept by Dr. Thos. Others, like engine oiler Joe Dobeck, a mere 600 feet away from the outriding boulders, felt the concussion of the trapped air being expelled from the mass with the sound of a freight train passing close, but saw nothing in the darkness. A document called the Trust Deed dated January 1 of 1952 specified that CCL was constituted from the assets of International, MCC and Hillcrest-Mohawk and recorded that Hillcrest-Mohawk would remain a separate entity with its original shares outstanding. Rising amid the complex, the 100-foot tall stack, festively banded in white and red, clashes incongruously with the mountain scenery. In the dying days of World War One the Bellevue Horticultural Society organized itself and held its first parade and sports day on Labour Day of 1918. This seemingly sensible idea was rejected on the argument that the lamp didnt cast nearly the same amount of light as an open flame, and therefore made working in the absolute pitch-black darkness of a coal mine even more dangerous. Some people would have to be coerced, their access to alcohol blocked. Elevation profile of Kootenay Pass climb, east side, on BC Highway 3 (Crowsnest Highway) But the biggest part of this climb happens in the final 12 kilometers - that is, after the point at which I realized I was getting tired. On August 10th, 1904, WCC was registered as a foreign company in Canada, intent on enriching its backers. Among them was Dr. Geo. So: rise/run = 6/100 The question is, if the horizontal "run" is actually 15km, what is the corresponding "rise" (call it x)? H.S. Municipal District of Pincher Creek No. Blairmores secondary industries, A vibrant, wealth-generating region like the East Pass attracted entrepreneurs aplenty, especially in the field of construction. If the time it takes for the signal to return changes, it means the mountain is moving, said Doug Martin, another member of the team who measures readings from the new sensor to those the team previously installed on the mountaintop. Owners, of course, regarded Workers organizations as anathema to the orderly production of wealth and fought them at every turn. Jack Kerr bought sole ownership in 1945 and created a sad little zoo on the toes of Bluff Mountain across the River. Brock of the Geological Survey of Canada tabled their report. Thus ended mining in Bellevue. Rocky Mountain sold its works to the Canadian Cement Company, but the plant never re-opened and was scrapped out in 1939. The Second World War called Colemans miners back to work in numbers not seen since the 10s. In October of 1901 Alexander Leitch16 from Killarney, Manitoba, opened the hamlets first mercantile store. Crowsnest Pass is 1358m high. Standing on Iron Ridges bluffs and contemplating the gas scouring stations stack, the traveller is suspended between Albertas economic past and present. Here and there on the heights surrounding, the charred remains of the trees immolated in the wildfires of 2004 remind the human inhabitants of this valley just how vulnerable is the forest organism. However crude, even by the standards of the times, it was a harbinger of a new age. Its a hold-over from the early oil-boom days of the 1950s when truck-loads of Texan drilling equipment were navigating the provinces then slender highways. Behind the monument, enclosed within a fence made with Paige wire stiffened by cable hung on posts of 50-pound rail, the Hillcrest Cemetery must cover five acres. for Canadian industry, and though the CPR was responsible for the resultant prosperity, it was resented both for its wealth and its apparent disregard for the little guy. Being a business, and a large, Eastern-owned one at that, it was naturally more concerned with its bottom line than with the convenience of the folks living along its right-of-way. Patterson was immediately replaced as president by McGillivrays H.A. The rate also correspondingly limited industrial growth in the western provinces as it was cheaper to produce items in eastern Canada and ship them west under the Crow Rate. Then came the Big Strike. The Journal struggled along through several ownerships until the death of Thomas Holstead, proprietor and publisher, in September of 1970. In 1907 West Canadian Collieries moved its offices to Blairmore and began developing its Blairmore South mine. About a mile farther down the Highway, down the dip past the gaping entrance to the Bellevue mine on the left and up again, the Information Centre marks the 227th Street entrance to the town, and farther yet, 27th Avenue intersects the No. The trees in the Trough had been burned over in July of 1896, so McLarens staked their timber berths in the watersheds of the Allison, Star and York Creeks. It was the first of these routes to reopen. And starting from Burnt Flats, the ascent is 23.1 km long. His pay roll would eventually contribute $15,000 a month to the east Pass economy and his Hindu workers add an exotic flavour to the Troughs ethnic mix. In 1904 Coleman incorporated itself as a Village and elected G.M. To indicate Trails and Routes, identifying colours were painted in bands at eye level on telephone poles or in patches on buildings. Lille never really amounted to much of a settlement. In 1920, Canadian justice, unfettered by concerns about an accuseds civil rights&3148; and the bloated union of pettifoggers which hobbles it today, was able to move swiftly and purposefully. Not only were there clandestine stills aplenty, but as distilleries and breweries in all of the western provinces were still permitted to bottle product for export, all a shady entrepreneur had to do was cook up the paper work to buy it and then smuggle it to his customers. Though the coking qualities of Vicary coal were excellent, Japanese orders remained sporadic until F.J. Harquail finalized a long-term contract with them in April of 1967. A year before it abandoned its Blairmore South works in 1914, West Canadian Collieries had begun mining into the bench of the Trough immediately north of Blairmore, on property it likely bought from Fishburn, Baker and Proctor. Carson, G.A. In 1951 the Bellevue output 231,567 tons with 316 men. Frank, Leaving Blairmore, 20th Avenue rolls east past the Courthouse, crosses the River on a concrete decked bridge and rejoins the Crowsnest Highway at the base of Bluff Mountain, also known as Goat Mountain for those evolved antelopes which at one time populated its slopes. At the time there was a professional disagreement as to how the patients should be treated: one side advocating complete rest and isolation, the other proclaiming that fresh air and exercise was essential. Hillcrest-Mohawk, though its enormous underground mine was nearing exhaustion, possessed a good tipple, contracted buyers for large quantities of coal and a profitable stripping operation in progress at Tent Mountain. Larger lumps of coal were worth more because they burned longer in the consumers furnaces. It's impossible to drive from BC to Alberta without crossing a pass - the continental divide runs along the provincial border. A warren of shops and offices were growing up around the mine mouth. The three-storey Maple Leaf Hotel was up by the end of that year and was soon joined by Allazettas General Store and Mrs. Rudds store. Destroyed were the western Canadian coal markets when the smelter furnaces in B.C.s Boundary and Kootenay Districts were allowed to cool, many never to feel flame again. Not a hundred metres on, the No. Never mind what they were doing in what was a pretty remote neck-of-the-woods back then, they supposedly built a little kiln and began production, laboriously hauling their lime down the crude waggon road to the railhead at Lethbridge. Costing 34 dead men their lives that year, Bellevues profits were won at a high cost. Come 1910, however, at the Junction, just west of the road bridge to Bellevue, the Railway had raised the larger Hillcrest Mines dept to serve both Bellevue and Hillcrest. 3 highway in southern British Columbia. If the devices reveal a significant shift in rock mass, a Code Yellow or Code Orange would be called and the public would be notified that a landslide is increasingly likely. Additionally, total system mileage categorized by surface type is based on sampling and is not . Out of Coleman, In the hopeful morning sun in the spring of 1993, Coleman appeared to the visitor well breakfasted at Chris Restaurant and breakfast caf on 17th not nearly as dismal as it did in a cold evening shower. That same month EKP opened negotiations with the Town of Coleman to buy 2.9 acres of Crowsnest Lake waterfront upon which to construct a steam-powered generation plant. It was, however, a poor time to begin a coal mine and the operation never amounted to much. The mine owners, unsurprisingly, disagreed with both the miners and the Eight-Hour Shift regulation. Cozy? The UMWA leadership, needing to win back its members, treated with the mine owners and soon reached an agreement. 3. Low in elevation, fairly open, with gentle grades, the Pass begged a railroad. In this mixed neighbourhood of old working family cottages and up-scale homes, visitors will find that 127th Street leads them south past Isabelle Sellon Junior High, the arena to the Pass Powderkeg Ski Hill on the benches south of town. Away eastward from the ruin of the Leitch powerhouse and up a few feet out of Police Flats, the Highway breaks free of the Rockies. The enormity of the tragedy shocked the World; even King George V of Great Britain had his secretary send his condolences. Culturally, Bellevue, like all Pass communities, was an exotic mix of nationalities. Egbert, who first suggested that MCC and International amalgamate. Passburg was, of course, staggered by Leitch Collieries failure. No-one knew if Auloff had joined up with Bassoff in the rocks and everybody expected more gun play. The suggestion made sense: the companies were working the same seams, were in close proximity to each other, and were both suffering drastically reduced sales. In the Coleman museum and in the occasional pamphlet, one sees a reproduction of the blueprint of the Hillcrest Mine. Examples are the Cosmopolitan Hotel, a big old three-story brick pile which has anchored the downtown and welcomed guests since 1912, the Telephone Building resembling a fancy little red-brick cottage, erected after a fire on December 27, 1927, destroyed its predecessor, and the Lethbridge Brewing and Malting Company building dating to 1907. Charles Plummer Hill had roamed and worked in the American Northwest for many years before he got the chance to wander through the Crowsnest Pass in the late 1890s. The telephone soon summoned posses of the Royal Canadian Mounted, the Alberta Provincial, and the CPR Police to barricade the proto-Highway and monitor the rail line. The miners and surface workers had to be kept satisfied with adequate pay and perquisites. At the east end of Main the road bifurcates, the left branch lifting travellers back up onto the Highway. All your travel news: our automobile, motorcycle and tyre tips and good deals, routes, traffic updates and road network flashes, motoring services on your route and future innovations. The highway goes east for 7km (4mi) to its junction with the Coquihalla Highway (Highway 5), where it exits the freeway and continues for 127km (79mi) on a segment known as the Hope-Princeton Highway, passing the Hope Slide en route to Allison Pass, Manning Provincial Park, and Sunday Summit; at Princeton, the Crowsnest Highway meets Highway 5A. Come 1922, however, work of any kind became scarce as the post-War recession bit deeply into industrial production world wide. Its a pretty nice day job. Seeking to control the price CNP Coal was charging CM&S for coke, Warren quickly convinced International to refurbish the newest 14 of its battery of old beehive coking ovens which had stood cold since the collapse of the metals market in 1918, and fire up a 70,000-ton sample for Trail to assess. Long disappeared into misty memories are those double headed freight drags, a helper cut in halfway along the train, blowing and coughing and clattering their way uphill into B.C. Like an emerald in its setting, the two-storeyd red brick, green-roofed cube of old Cameron School has anchored the community since it was built as West Ward School in 1919. She was originally owned by the CPR which sold it to Hillcrest Collieries, Limited. Nearby is imposingly-porticod Maple Leaf School, a stuccoed, single-storeyd wood-framed structure which welcomed children for 40 years beginning in 1924. The uncertainty of ownership became an acute inconvenience in the aftermath of the disaster that all but wiped out the nearby settlement of Frank in April of 1903. Despite the companys, problems optimism seemed to reign at Internationals board meetings, for a new tipple erected in steel in 1926. Losses continued. No powered tools were needed to extract the coal, and horses were quite able to handle the underground haulage chores. As it was buying International shares, CM&S was also gathering shares of McGillivray Creek through the offices of president Campbell: 800,000 worth $280,000 by the end of 1934, and began to promote the idea of amalgamating the two collieries. Other raises would be chutes to allow the coal to drain downward into the Main. Local prospects for graduates were, however, poor. In August of 1906 CMC re-organized itself and re-defined its business plan, deciding to invest its dwindling capital in the construction of a new concentrator at the Bluebell and send its output to the CPRs big plant at Trail for smelting. Alberta | B-Tour . In many ways, the Hillcrest was typical of mines in the Trough, though it had the reputation for being best run and the safest. Leitch again resorted to non-union labour to supply the locomotives and Trail smelter furnaces of its main customer, the CPR, but the untrained workers were inefficient and production was poor. The story is a little fuzzy, as all good tales should be. The tipple was busy, though, sorting and grading 93,000 tons from the Adanac, 89,000 from Adanac South and 124,000 from the Grassy Mountain stripping operation. Blairmore20th Avenue, South-eastward from the sawmill site the old No. A quick eye cast northward here can glimpse one of the portals of the McGillivray Creek Coal and Coke Companys mine. On September 17th, 1917, McGillivray Creek Coal and Coke incorporated itself in Canada. They likely did some development work to prove their prospect before travelling to France to raise the capital necessary to drift in a mine and build a railroad to connect the site to the CPRs Crows Nest Line. The shaft upwards connected to the Main adit which would be mined into the seam some 30 feet above, and inclined slightly upward so that loaded coal cars would roll easily to the mines mouth. Though necessary to keep the mine from caving in, timber-work was expensive in time and material. An agreement was struck and on December 4th Coleman Collieries, Limited, (CCL) was incorporated under the Alberta Companies Act with a 1.21 million dollar capitalization in $1.00 shares, the majority of which were bought up by CM&S, along with 36.1% of the bonds. At 0410 hours the night shift was at work, foreman Joe Chapman and 16 men underground, three workers on the surface weighing coal and readying a train of loaded cars for the approaching CP locomotive. Though the agreed wage for a qualified miner at the face was set at an acceptable $3.65 per day, many other issues remained unresolved. By the spring of 1955 the salvors had finished with the coke ovens, leaving only the bricks for souvenir hunters and do-it-yourselfers to scavenge. Bohi and L.S. Downtown Coleman isnt much, really. The property was owned by one J.C. Drewry. Fernau was fascinated, writes Jeremy Mouat in The Business of PowerHydro-Electricity in South Eastern British Columbia, and soon convinced himself that advanced Belgian techniques in smelting would solve the problem. Climbing onto the low interlacustrine ridge the No. As expected, the coke was not good. The completion of the CNL opened southern Alberta and B.C. Buildings worth saving were trundled away to Bellevue, Frank and Blairmore. Frequently, pockets of methane gasfiredampwere encountered trapped in the seam or, heavier than air, pooled on a rooms floor having leaked from the coal face. Under the auspices of the Ecomuseum Trust the building was declared a Provincial Historic Site on July 6th, 1993, and restoration was completed. The result was a polyglot mixture of groups who could not always communicate and did not entirely trust each other.

"Turtle Mountain is an all-time favorite that most people want to do," Heather Davis says. When Frank worked, besides mining, it coaled and watered CPs engines from its dock and tank, and in its little engine shed built on the south side of the Crows Nest Lines right-of-way maintained the pusher locomotives which were needed to ease coal trains over the Slide and prod them over the hump at Lundbreck to the east, or up to Crowsnest to the west. Eastward from its intersection with the Bellevue-Hillcrest Road, the Highway passes the Bellevue mine and interpretive centre on the left, the tiny Wayside Chapel, and the remains of Mohawk Collieries tipple on the right, and begins curving lazily to the left across the apron of the souther-most spur of humble Tallon Peak. Leaving Frank, A little bridge installed in 1955 carries the No. The European segment of Society who was most interested in its consumption continued to enjoy access to liquor. Crowsnest Pass: Hwy 3: 1.9km East of - BC Border . It was founded as a railway siding around the turn of the century to dig clay out of the nearby deposits and ship it to Medicine Hat where it would be fired into sewer pipe. Besides the Army, another group which the Great War brought to Blairmore was the Royal North-West Mounted Police. The lower adit, some 15 feet above the River, was for ventilation, and would eventually reaching 2500 feet with a shaft upwards at the 2300 foot mark. By 1907 the denizens of the Alberta side of the Pass were exasperated enough with CP that several local businessmen provincially incorporated the Crows Nest and Prairie Electric Railway Company which they envisioned as running a fifty-kilometre-long inter-urban streetcar system from Sentinel, at the eastern end of Crowsnest Lake, to Pincher Creek, the Prairie end.
