• The Upper Athabasca valley was the site of Metis habitation during the late 19th and early 20th centuries. These people left the area at the time that Jasper National Park was formed, however, their activities have left an enduring imprint on the landscape. Our research involves identifying and scanning archival materials, particularly photographs, related to the homesteads. The multimedia project provides an important representation of this historic human presence with the river valley environment.
