It

by
way
of
the
North
Thompson
River
and
the
new
Blue

Valemount
link,
It
was
reported
by
E.
A.
Gurney,
well-known
engineer
of
the
federal
Department
of
Mines
and
Natural
Resources,
who
was
a
visitor
In
Prince

at
the
first

Mr.
Gurney
Is
engineer
In
charge
of
the
construction
of
this
new
Vale-mount-Blue
River
link
which
Is
60
miles
in
length
and
the
construction
of
which
makes
a
direct
road
between
Red

Actually
the
first
car
to
drive
through

Mr.

engineer
of
the
Prince
Rupert
Highway
at
Terrace,
left
his
car
at
Terrace

came
on
Into
Prince
Rupert
by
train.
He
was
held
up
by
the
big
slide
at
Amesbury
which
has
now
been
cleared
out.
This
was
an
unprecedented
sort
of
slide
the
like
of
which
might
not
occur
again
for
many
years.
It
resulted
from
a
comparatively
small
creek
going
on
the
rampage
and
piling
up
'boulders,
some
of
20
to
30
tons
In
size,
over
the
road.
The
slide
was
probably
1,000
feet
long
to
a
depth
of
12
to
15
feet,
Bulldozers
were
used
to
good
effect
