Reading back on your history with Parks Canada Warden Service brought back a couple memories for me as well. I worked in Kootenay National Park in early years 1986-1987 on the gardening and trail crew. Later after attending forestry and wildlife tech school I got a seasonal park warden GT 1 position and spent time working in Lake Louise, Kootenay, Pacific Rim. However, it was the short time spent working with you (trapping bears) on the Banff-Kootenay-Yoho grizzly bear study that prepared me to become a Park Warden. As time would have it, I moved on to other natural resource careers working in the Yukon and BC. You were an influence both professionally and personally as I now near my own retirement. Grateful for these experiences. Thank you for this.

Happy to have met you a couple of times and chased pucks and downed beers at the Warden hockey tourney…. Your thoughts , stories and recollections and those of many others bring back so many good memories of an era many of us were so fortunate to experience , create and enjoy. It was a brotherhood for sure. Not so much these days. . sad but true.. Take care.
