During the summer field season of 1968, some 70 scientists and their assistants participated in the Icefield Ranges Research Project and its associated High Mountain Environment Project. An additional 15 persons were involved in logistic or operational programs. Six full-time field stations were operated during the summer: Kluane Base Camp, Divide Station, Mount Logan, Fox Glacier, Gladstone, and Chitistone Pass. Short-term stations were also maintained at the Kaskawulsh terminus, Slims' Tundra, Donjek River, White River, Steele Glacier, Fredrika Glacier, and Glacier Creek. .
