"Ken McCannel, a forester in the Surveys Division was in charge of the YMFTP for the entire province. He dropped in at Aleza Lake on an inspection trip at the same time as Malcolm Knapp. Professor Knapp of the forestry department of UBC went from camp to camp giving lectures on forestry to the YMFTP crews. They posed for this picture. Sills were being whip-sawn for foundations on the older buildings." -- from the notes of Ralph Schmidt in accompanying file
