Excerpt from Compiled From the Year Book of British Columbia and Manual of Provincial Information: To Which Is Added a Chapter Containing Much Special Information Respecting the Canadian Yukon and Northern Territory Generally

In average altitude these mountains are not greatly inferior to the Rockies, their loftier members rising from to feet above the sea. The contours are, generally speaking, more rounded and less precipitous than the latter, though in many places they are strikingly pointed with steep and continuous grades, down which snow-slides sweep with resistless force. Their sides, up to several thousand feet, are clothed in dense forests, affording an unlimited supply of good timber.
