Note from the author: I began this story from an outline provided by Florence Petersen almost two years ago. She provided facts and figures, as well as her clear memories of those early days. Unfortunately I was not able to show her the final draft before her passing in August.
I hope she would have appreciated these ramblings.
The Whistler Museum pulled together some fascinating original documents, which traced the Alta Lake Volunteers Firefighter's early efforts. Please support and visit the Whistler Museum.
