This article presents a case study of the early development of ski mountaineering in the Rocky Mountains of Canada. It combines an emphasis on the early adaptation of skiing as part of a larger process of economic and cultural production during the early decades of the twentieth century, with parallel attention to the form in which ski mountaineering was both constrained and, later, suddenly generated throughout the 1930s by the Alpine Club of Canada. Their writings played a strategic role in the location of skiing within the wider discourses of Victorian mountaineering, and served to confirm and legitimate Anglo-Canadian hegemony. Examining the processes and struggles of this shift, this article is informed to a great extent by the accounts written in the Canadian Alpine Journal, the club's official organ, during a period loosely framed by the ending of the era now celebrated as the 'Glory Days of Canadian Mountaineering' and Canada's entry in the Second World War. |
