Biography/Administrative history:

Show detail Hide detail

Riding Mountain National Park (Canada) : Riding Mountain National Park, located in Manitoba, was established by the Dominion Parks Branch in 1929. Formerly, the area had been the Riding Mountain Forest Reserve. Development of the park began the next year under the acting superintendent James Smart. Temporary headquarters were established at Dauphin, later at Neepawa and, permanently in 1933 at Wasagaming. Much of the development work done in the early years of the park was achieved at low cost through the use of relief camp workers during the Great Depression.
