Together, they navigate dense timber, treacherous muskeg, and swollen glacial rivers across regions that now form Banff and Jasper National Parks. Guided by a hand-drawn map from Stoney Nakoda hunter Sampson Beaver, Schäffer's party becomes the first recorded non-Indigenous group to reach the remote waters of Chaba Imne, known today as Maligne Lake. \u003c\/span\u003e\u003c\/p\u003e\n\u003cp\u003e\u003cspan style=\"color: rgb(0, 0, 0);\"\u003eISBN: 978092060806x  \u003c\/span\u003e\u003c\/p\u003e\n\u003cp\u003e\u003cspan style=\"color: rgb(0, 0, 0);\"\u003eGC\u0026amp;C Stock #5414\u003c\/span\u003e\u003c\/p\u003e","brand":"Gillmore Coins \u0026 Collectibles","offers":[{"title":"Default Title","offer_id":68042866753766,"sku":"5414","price":15.0,"currency_code":"CAD","in_stock":true}],"thumbnail_url":"\/\/cdn.shopify.com\/s\/files\/1\/0607\/6212\/8614\/files\/5414_1.jpg?v=1794697936","url":"https:\/\/gillmore.ca\/products\/a-hunter-of-peace-old-indian-trails-of-the-canadian-rockies-by-mary-t-s-schaffer-1989-1st-ed","provider":"Gillmore Coins \u0026 Collectibles","version":"1.0","type":"link"}
