GALLERY

Over the years people from near and far have photographed this area and created video, so we have developed this page to share the work.

To contribute to this page, contact the person responsible for the Website, as listed on the Contacts page. As you select a group of digital or scanned photos, please think about your photos of people. If you think that person would not want their photo on this website, maybe you'd better not include that photo.

Many thanks to those who have provided beautiful and interesting work to share.

Kyle Hahn: In October, 2020, the new accessible trail to Booty's Cabin was completed with the help and support of many people, including Kyle's suggestions. He then created this drone video to share the trail with everyone, even those far away right now who can't visit it in person.

Larry Doell: In May, 2019, professional Rossland photographer Larry Doell took aerial images of nearly all aspects of the terrain in the Rec Site and the best 19 photographs are accessible for download and review in their original size. The images are in 7 separate folders labeled by area of the Rec Site. These are probably more current than Google Earth (not to knock GE) and an important visual history for future comparisons for many reasons. Look closely and you will see the cabins, how you access them and maybe a new spot to ski! These are the large original files, so download the photos of interest and view them on your computer for best results. Please let us know if you have access issues or are interested in seeing all the photos.

Troy Colautti: An experienced photographer, Troy shares his photographs of huts and summits taken in all seasons and at all times of the day and night, of mountain goats on Old Glory, scenic shots, and of mountain bikers on the Seven Summits Trail. He also shares colorful shots of the Cookie Jar and the funky signs that have been in the area for many years.

Sara Golling: Sara has travelled all over the area on snowshoes and foot.  Her gallery includes photos of  the Barking Spider hut, Les Carter skiing, friends on a snowshoe outing, Berry, Old Glory, and the north face of Plewman.  Some photos are views from the summit of Elgood, the east ridge of Berry.  Summer photos include wildflowers, mountain biking on the Seven Summits Trail, and a wood-cutting trip for the Crowe's Nest hut. In the middle of her shots are some educational photographs of blowdowns/deadfall that exist in the forest and that can be removed to reduce fire hazards and also to improve travel through the area.

"The Nancy Greene Cabins" by Chris Tremblay and Jordon Strobel is a 6 minute video telling some of the history of the original cabin builders and featuring Cookie L'ecluse:

A 15 minute video created by the Caelum Scott and Aidan Smith, students at Rossland Seven Summits Centre for Learning, and based on raw interview footage by James Klemmenson tells more of the cabins' history and features Richie Mann, Bob McQueen, Scott Matheson, Steve Bryant, Cedric Hanson, Trudi Toews and Sharon Griffiths:

 

Snowshoe & Huts

The Friends of the Rossland Range have created a fabulous network of trails to day-use cabins in and around Rossland. These cabins can be enjoyed by all and can easily be acccessed by snowshoe, cross-country or touring. Go explore them for yourself. #RosslandVideo by: Bohdan Doval

NOTE: it’s a “Site” because that’s what the relevant legislation calls it, but it includes lots of area.
