by
General

Co.
Ltd.
of
Vancouver,
which
was
awarded
the
contract
after
a
careful
study
by
engineers-
Clearing
the
slide,
which
tumbled
down
400
feet
of
sheer
canyon
walls
presented
many
hazards
as
well
as
months
of
continuous
labor
with
bulldozers,
cranes
and
i
trucks.
Trucks
had
to
be
used
to
haul
the
rock
and
dirt
away
from
the
steep
river
banks.
A
truck
road
including
several
switch-backs
was
constructed,
leading
to
a
safe

place.
EASY
ACCESS
The
cleared
channel
will
make
way
this
summer
for
the
migration
of
more
than
500.000
sockeye
to
their
spawning
grounds
In

of

Lake.
These
grounds

also
coho
salmon,
and
effect
of
the
disastrous
slide
during
the
middle
of
the
1951
spawning
season
are
expected
to
be
felt
sharply
In
the
1955
cycle.
Biggest
problem
in
seeking
a
solution
to
the
disaster
was
to
decide
whether
the
slide
could
be
cleared
permanently,
or
whether
a
second
"Hell's
Gate"
fish
ladder
was
necessary.
Cost
of
clearing,
said
fisheries
officials,
was
about
half
the
cost
of
the
Fraser
River
Hell's
Gate
ladder
construction.
Work
on
the
project
began
during
the
1951-52
winter
with
construction
of
a
road
from
Haz-elton
to
the
slide
by
department
of
fisheries
engineers
and
crewmen.

Following
construction
of
the
road
through
more
than
60
miles
of
rock
bluffs,

and

fisheries
experts
began
