Above: An early
model of the fort
drawn by Mr. Fisk
in SketchUp
®
with
snow added in
Painter. Right: This
drawing by Assistant
Art Director Chris
Beach reflects
early thinking
about leaded glass
windows. Mr. Fisk:
"I ended up deciding
in favor of a straight
rectangle over the
diamond shape
because I thought
the diamond was too
English and quaint."
Opposite page, top
to bottom: The post-
and-beam structure
for the fort's office
was prefabricated
in the shop in
Vancouver and
trucked to Canmore,
Alberta, where it
was erected again
and construction
and paint were
completed. The
palisades and the
other buildings in
the fort were built
with logs received
from the Parks,
augmented by a
greens department
tree-cutting permit.
