October/December 2016 Wildland Advocate article, by Andrea Johancsik.
In a new take on a coffee-table book renowned guidebook author Gillean Daffern and Derek Ryder, the chair of Friends of Kananaskis, offer readers a 190-page spread of photographs and stories from the 2013 Flood. Everyone who was in southern Alberta during the 2013 Flood may have a story but The Great Kanan-
askis Flood focuses on the stories in the headwaters of southern Alberta. Kananaskis Country was the hardest hit landscape in Alberta during this significant event. The book appeals to our very human connection to stories and visuals and is a must-have for every Kananaskis-lover and those who want to nurture long-lasting memories of the Flood.
