Haidas and Their Legends on Queen Charlotte Islands
The author recalls a thirty mile trail between Yakoun and Queen Charlotte City and notes the islands future potential. He cites an 1909 Vancouver Province article praising Sir Harrison and detailing early mining, coal, timber, and settlement interest. The piece previews Ikeda Head zinc arsenical iron and current mining activity on Copper Island and Massett, with ongoing land, rail, and townsite development.
