OCTOBER 10, 1968 The following is a letter printed in the Montreal newspaper: Dear Sir, - | recently returned with a friend after a hitch-hik- ing trip to Vancouver. At times we were made to feel like criminals. At Lake Louise all the campsites were full. The R.C.M.P. wouldn't let us sleep in the jail and wouldn't let us use the lawn in the rear. We were E told we would get 60 days if found sleeping anywhere} ~ in the town outside a hotel, which we couldn't afford} We were told we could sleep outside the town limits, | off the highway. At Terrace Bay, Ontario, the police would have let us use the jail if they had had one, but instead dr drove us to the CPR station giving us permission to sleep there. One even offered to drive us to a look- out point the following day. In Blind River weslept on the sidewalk outside a supermarket. The OPP checked our identity and then checked every few hours to make sure we weren't being bothered. Despite the attitude at Lake Louise, which is the most beautiful lake | have ever seen, the trip mad me proud to be a Canadian. Kenneth A. Saxe, Montreal . 4 Len Williams and Cy Brassard of Terrace Bay, start ed out to bag a moose, but instead, ended up that day with a 125 Ib. Timber Wolf. Len says it was Cy's keen eye that first sighted the wolf, up on Spidell's Road, and Len shot it. They'll go out again looking for that moose. -photo by Marg Lundberg
