This cache is placed in an appropriate place in Athabasca. That might seem a little odd as it is Smith's Centennial celebration, but there is reason for it. In the days of trappers, fur traders, gold seekers and river boats our two communities were heavily intertwined. Athabasca was the central hub of all people and freight moving north. Once goods and people arrived in Athabasca they either went up or down river. The business men and forward thinkers like James Cornwall, Fletcher Bredin, the Revillon Brothers, J.H. Wood and others would have looked upon Mirror Landing (Smith) as an extension of Athabasca. They would have had satellite business contacts, if not offices, in Mirror Landing and other communities along the way. Families came up and down the river to socialize. It was a community that covered vast expanses of countryside where your very survival could be determined on making it to the next outpost. And so a hundred years later, when residents of Smith can drive the distance in a little less than an hour, where it once took days, we are still interconnected. Smith residents still shop, work and socialize with the residents of Athabasca. So the history is still being shared, not only in the events of our time but the history of a hundred years ago. Much of the content of this tour and it's photographs have come from the Athabasca Archives. Cheers! See you in another hundred years!
