Summary

[edit]
Description

Robert Bell and Ernest Thompson Seton showed some of the basic vegetation distribution patterns within Manitoba on their maps. Professional foresters integrated data of this sort and produced general distribution maps of vegetation such as appeared, for example, in the 1906 edition of the Atlas of Canada. In 1934 the first pamphlet on forests of Manitoba was published, containing the map shown here. It shows the great variation in vegetation in Manitoba: from grassland, to deciduous and boreal forests, to arctic tundra. By 1934 the forest resources of Manitoba were being used for pulp and paper manufacture, as well as sawmilling. (Warkentin and Ruggles. Historical Atlas of Manitoba. map 237, p. 456)
