Yellowhead Pass National Historic Site, BC
The Yellowhead Pass is a mountain pass across the Continental Divide of the Americas in the Canadian Rockies. It is on the provincial boundary between the Canadian provinces of Alberta and British Columbia, and lies within Jasper National Park and Mount Robson Provincial Park.
Due to its modest elevation of 1,131 m (3,711 ft) and its gradual approaches, the pass was recommended by Sir Sandford Fleming as a route across the Rocky Mountains for the planned Canadian Pacific Railway. The proposal was rejected in favour of a more direct and southerly route, through the more difficult Kicking Horse Pass, which was opened in 1886. Later the Grand Trunk Pacific and Canadian Northern Railways used the Yellowhead Pass for their main lines, built c. 1910–1913, and the main line of their successor, the Canadian National Railway, still follows the route. Via Rail's premier passenger train, the Canadian; the Jasper – Prince Rupert train; and the Jasper section of the Rocky Mountaineer use the Yellowhead Pass, which is now used also by the Yellowhead Highway.
It is believed that the pass was named for Pierre Bostonais (nicknamed Tête Jaune, French for "yellow head", because of his blond hair), an Iroquois-Métis trapper employed as a guide by the Hudson's Bay Company. Bostonais led one of the first expeditions for the company to what is now the interior of British Columbia through the pass in 1820.

My Ideal Role as an Environmental Interpreter 🌿
In my ideal role as an environmental interpreter, I envision myself working as a guide/interpreter for a provincial or national park, specifically one that is rich in biodiversity with extensive trails and pathways for exploration. One example of this location could be Mount Robson Provincial Park in British Columbia. This park is on the western edge of the Canadian Rockies and is rich in biodiversity, with 229 different species being identified within the park. This includes 82 birds, 42 mammals, 4 amphibians, and 1 reptile (British Columbia Parks, 2023). There are also various different ecosystems within the park, with four biogeoclimatic zones used to categorize these ecosystems (British Columbia Parks, 2023).
Mount Robson Provincial Park, ON
This would be my ideal role as it is in line with my passion for raising environmental awareness and conservation. This passion of mine for environmental sustainability is one that I have recently come to have, evoked by the many environmental courses I've taken here at Guelph. Moreover, this role would give me the opportunity to not only educate others on the nature in the park but also share the importance of environmental responsibility and encourage people to feel their connection to the natural environment.
In this role, my responsibilities would involve leading interpretive programs for nature lovers of all ages, from school groups to mature adults. I think this role would also include recognizing the importance of different learning styles, as each individual has different ways in which they are able to effectively learn. Due to this, it would be important for me to include varied teaching strategies such as guided nature excursions, in-depth discussions, and hands-on activities. Whether directing adults through a nature photography course or leading a group of kids on a short wildlife excursion, I would adapt my approach to make sure that everyone had a positive and inclusive experience.
Additionally, this role would require a specific set of skills to succeed. Firstly, a thorough understanding of ecology and biodiversity is crucial as it would assist in the understanding and clarification of difficult scientific ideas. Possessing strong communication abilities would also be important as they would aid in explaining these ideas to a variety of audiences. In relation to this, being able to create interesting and educational lessons would be a useful skill, as it could promote greater comprehension of difficult ideas in addition to grabbing learners' attention. In order to develop these lessons, collaboration is another important skill to have. Specifically, collaboration with other interpreters, park employees, and local communities in order to ensure that the information provided is accurate and relevant.
Overall, regardless of what the role is, I think that the most important thing is that it includes education. Encouraging others to recognize and understand their role in protecting the environment is critical not only for the ecosystem but also for our planet's long-term survival. Thus, regardless of the specific role, education is the most important aspect, as it is an effective tool for promoting positive change and establishing a shared commitment to environmental conservation.
