Report, Yoho Camp
177
A word with regard to these trails of the Yoho valley: They are the outcome of the artistic, engineering skill and keen appreciation of the value of magnificent alpine scenery as a boon to mankind, possessed by the late E. J. Duchesnay. Assistant General Superintendent of the Pacific Division of the Canadian Pacific railway. In the location of the pony trail around the Yoho valley and below Mts. Wapta and Field, every possible vantage point has been grasped with a skill that could only have been realized by a true lover of Nature.
