Photograph of a hike along the trail to Clague Mountain provides an excellent way to enjoy the predicted good weather over the B.C. day weekend. Among the streams and water falls, this old logging bridge can be seen.

Jamieson came to Kitimat from Vancouver to work on the Alcan project in 1952. With his first pay cheque he bought a small "Pony Kodak" camera at the local store (Hudson Bay?), and started taking coloured slides of the Kitimat from 1952-1953. Left Kitimat at the end of August 1953 to move to Montreal.
