interesting that there were open seasons on whitetail even back then , i was under the impression that they were introduced or rather that they migrated north in much more recent history. cool post

Wow. I'm awed that I was able to read such a publishing. Thanks! That is an amazing snapshot in time!

Too many quotes to pick a fave, but here's an interesting caption:

Bag Limit:
3 Caribou
3 Goats
3 Sheep (not more than two of any single species and not more than one from the Kootenay District)
5 deer (not more than 3 of any single species)
2 Moose (only 1 from the Kootenay District)

Certainly liberal, but not as much as I'd have thought.
