My Earliest Memories

Pages : 65
Book Description
A few years ago, I was working on my genealogy and started thinking, I see all these names on my family tree, but I know very little about them. Each one of them had a story to tell. Over the years, I have enjoyed telling my daughters and grandkids little stories about "when I was younger." And when we had the resort several times, we would say, "We should write a book about our resort experiences." So I decided to write down some stories for my grandkids. I started with the story about how God gave us Squaw Point Resort. Then he said, "Okay, let's move on to something new." As I look back on my life, I see all these pieces of a jigsaw puzzle coming together, and I can see how God has had a part in each piece.

Life of the Trail 3
Author: Emerson Sanford
Publisher: Rocky Mountain Books Ltd
ISBN: 9781897522417
Category : Biography & Autobiography
Languages : en
Pages : 226
Book Description
"Life of the Trail" is a fascinating series that guides today's hikers and armchair travelers through the stories of historic routes in the Canadian Rockies. When authors Emerson Sanford and Janice Sanford Beck began backpacking together nearly 20 years ago, they often wondered whose footsteps they were retracing and how today's trails through the Rockies came to be there. In "Life of the Trail," they share their findings with adventurers and history buffs alike. "Life of the Trail 3: The Historic Route from Old Bow Fort to Jasper" starts at the remains of Peigan Post, originally built in 1832 and still visible today, located at the west end of the Morley Reserve. This entire route is now a contemporary road, but early in the 20th century the section north of Lake Louise was the main trail heading north and was very busy with pioneers, adventurers and explorers. The trail has been divided into three sections: Old Bow Fort to Lake Louise, Lake Louise to Sunwapta Pass and Sunwapta Pass to Jasper.
