and the wonderful people

But as a single white male

pigeon holes, ;

I'm determined not to let
the bitterness and anger I
feel taint
memories of this town and
the lifetime friends I have
made.

but supposedly what doesn’t

Once again, thanks Ter-

Terrace Standard,

That apparent waterfall is
a optical illusion as seen
from Hwy16.

In reality it is a stream de-
scending down a very steep
mountain side,

There is a somewhat easy
way to get up there, In 1983,
under the supervision of

George Chinn, about 20
people put a trail up there
and beyond right to the gla-
cial lake
mountain stream.
