North Fork road during 1852 to
1854.
THE coRBlN ROUTE
Baker, a Flathead visitor last
weekend, said that he with o. j..
Tidball, Wa ton postmaster,
drove a passenger car Sept. 2 from
Waterton over the Crows Nest
pass highway and then down to
Corbin, B. c. From Corbin they
took the new road built by Can
adams down the Flathead rivers
North Fork to the international
boundary and then to Columbia
Falls.
Baker said that the road was
surprisingly good, and suggested
joint effort to improve the North
Fork route to Corbin, B. C. which
| he felt would fit into the proposed
loop highway development.
The Akamina pass highway pro-
ject at this time would require
British Columbia to cede corner
of the province for enlargement
of Waterton Lakes National Park
The road to Corbin would not re-
quire any such action, and would
also assist Canadian development
of a potential oil field just across
the border in the North Fork.
