Distribution
The Fernie Formation reaches a maximum thickness of 400 metres (1,310 ft) near Mount Allan, and typically has 70 to 150m. It thins out toward the east, and disappears at the longitude of Calgary. The formation is exposed in outcrops in south-eastern British Columbia in the Kootenays region, in the foothills and front ranges of the Canadian Rockies in southern Alberta and as far north as the Peace River Country in north-western British Columbia

“Classical and romantic: private language of a family quarrel, a dead dispute over the distribution of emphasis between man and nature.”
—Cyril Connolly (1903–1974)
“The question for the country now is how to secure a more equal distribution of property among the people. There can be no republican institutions with vast masses of property permanently in a few hands, and large masses of voters without property.... Let no man get by inheritance, or by will, more than will produce at four per cent interest an income ... of fifteen thousand dollars] per year, or an estate of five hundred thousand dollars.”
—Rutherford Birchard Hayes (1822–1893)
“My topic for Army reunions ... this summer: How to prepare for war in time of peace. Not by fortifications, by navies, or by standing armies. But by policies which will add to the happiness and the comfort of all our people and which will tend to the distribution of intelligence [and] wealth equally among all. Our strength is a contented and intelligent community.”
—Rutherford Birchard Hayes (1822–1893)
