South Thompson Planning Report
The South Thompson River Basin is a major sub-regional area of the Thompson-Nicola Regional District. The South Thompson serves as a pathway for major salmon runs, a corridor for rail and highway transportation, a recreational resource for the Kamloops/Shuswap population, a scenic treasure, an agricultural base, a reservoir of flat land, and a clean water supply. It contains a priceless record of our archaeological and historical past. At the same time, it is obvious that this area is a delicate and vulnerable ecological and aesthetic system. Haphazard or random residential sprawl, ill considered industrial development, or inappropriate land use of any type could endanger and destroy this resource permanently. A policy statement indicating the desired directions in which the Regional District should permit development to proceed is imperative. This document, then, is a statement of policy.Not peer reviewedPlanning documentInterim Repor

This unidentified mountain landscape in the Great Smoky Mountains National Park was photographed by Jim Thompson. This image is from the collection of the Smoky Mountains Hiking Club, a group formed in the fall of 1924 after a group of outdoor enthusiasts hiked up to Mount LeConte. Enjoying the spectacular views, they decided to form a hiking club. The club was formally organized in Knoxville, Tennessee. Early club members included Carlos Campbell; Paul Adams, builder of Mount LeConte Lodge; author Laura Thornborough; Paul Fink, who served on the Park’s nomenclature committee; and Albert “Dutch” Roth. Jim Thompson was their “official” photographer
Laura Thornborough
A native of Tennessee, Laura Thornborough (born Laura Thornburgh, 1885-1973) was the author of several books; her most well-known work is “The Great Smoky Mountains.” In this 1937 publication, Thornborough describes the mountains and surrounding communities and provides a first-hand history of the park’s formation. James E. (Jim) Thompson (1880-1976) was a noted photographer, hiker, and outdoor enthusiast who played a major role in promoting a national park in the Southern Appalachians. In the 1920s, up to the park’s dedication in 1940, Thompson was often referred to as the “Official Photographer of the Great Smokies National Park Movement.” His work was reproduced in brochures and reports promoting the idea of a park and many of his photographs depict the landscape before park construction
