Note of Thanks
This project would not have been possible without the support
of the Royal British Columbia Museum under provisions of the Living
Landscapes Program. The support of the Kitamaat Village Council (Steve
Wilson, Chief Councilor) and the administration, Board and staff of the
Nanakila Foundation is gratefully recognized. Haisla Chief John R. Wilson, Bea
Wilson, Chris Wilson and John Wilson, Jr., led the expedition, drove the punts,
loaded and unloaded gear endlessly. The Kitlope guardians, Cecil Paul, Jr.,
Michael Wilson and Patricia Bolton welcomed us at their Kitlope facility. The
Haisla Creator provided safe passage, sending the rain that gives the raincoast
and rainforest their names. Chief Ken Hall who gave the report an editorial
reading.
