	CANOE -- JAM! Music - Pop Encyclopedia - Stampeders
		The period from late '68 to the mid '70's was a time of evolution for the new, three-man Stampeders in which they would develop their own sound, a sound that would take them around the world.
		The release of The Stampeders' fifth gold album, "New Day," saw the emergence of a more experimental sound and a highly popular single, "Ramona." Their live-album, "Backstage Pass," was recorded at Ontario Place before a sold-out crowd of 17,000 fans.
		The failure of the new jazzier, funky-sounding Stampeders to gain critical and commercial acceptance, along with the increased cost of supporting the large band, eventually led to the departure of drummer, Kim Berly.

	CanEHdian.com: The Stampeders
		The album sounded like the Stampeders were masquerading as “Kool and The Gang” which led to it becoming the band’s worst selling album of their career.
		- For this release, The Stampeders returned to their popular hard rock style of the mid 70's but it was too late.
		The band had lost their immense fan base and music trends were changing, hard rock was out, new wave and punk bands were all the rage.

	West Division - Calgary Stampeders
		Aside from winning six of seven games during the middle part of the season, the Stampeders began and ended the year with inconsistent play that was mostly attributed to their offence.
		The Stampeders running back finished second in league rushing with 1,541 yards and concluded the season gaining at least 100 yards in three of his last four games.
		The Stampeders also had the best kicker in the CFL this season, a position that is crucial for post-season success.

	Skagway, Alaska and Dyea, Alaska during the Gold Rush
		The competition for stampeder dollars continued in Dyea and Skagway, Alaska, the towns at the trail heads for the two most popular routes over the mountains, the Chilkoot Pass and the White Pass.
		Long before the stampeders began crossing over the Chilkoot Pass, the area of Dyea was used as a seasonal fishing camp.
		Stampeders (including many who had purchased tickets to Dyea) were often left to make their own way over to Dyea and the Chilkoot Pass trail.

	Gold Fever!--Determining the Facts 1
		Stampeders had to buy enough supplies to last for several months because there were few, if any, opportunities to replenish supplies on the way to the gold fields.
		Since many of the stampeders were poor, they had to take the less expensive but extremely difficult route up to the Alaskan panhandle and over mountains to the Yukon River and then to Dawson, the town closest to the gold fields.
		Most stampeders who set out in the fall would not even reach the gold fields until the following spring because the Yukon River had frozen and the mountain trails from Skagway and Dyea, Alaska, were almost impassable.

	The Stampeders - Greatest Hits 2
		From 1970 to 1974 the Stampeders were one of the country's top concert draws and were the first band to tour the country from coast to coast.
		While most of the Stampeders biggest hits are included on the fist volume of Greatest Hits, this set does contain extended versions of the hard rocking Running Wild, and the trippy Me and My Stone as well as a remarkable hard rock cover version of the Lovin' Spoonful Hit, Summer In The City.
		This set proves that the Stampeders were more than just a Canadian pop band, they were excellent musicians,songwriters and versatile performers that always kept up with the times and music trends, despite the lack of commercial radio support.

	Trails to the Gold Rush, White Pass and Chilkoot Pass
		Among the other routes promoted by various entrepreneurs were the all-water route which passed into the mouth of the Yukon River along the western Alaskan coast, a Canadian overland route that began in Edmonton, and smaller trails to the east and west of the main passes.
		Stampeders moved up the stairs in a single line, clutching the rope balustrade, carrying their goods on their backs, 50-60 pounds at a time.
		The stampede was fatal for many of the animals as they were beaten and driven along the thin, sloppy trail.

	Calgary Stampeders
		The Stampeders were formed in 1945, with prewar Regina star Dean Griffing as coach, and 3 years later the club won its first of 4 western championships to date.
		Perhaps the greatest contribution the Stampeders and Calgary fans have made to the growth of the game, particularly the Grey Cup, was in 1948.
		In 1960 the community-owned Stampeders moved into their present home, McMahon Stadium, and in 1968 and 1970 they returned to the Grey Cup, losing to Ottawa and Montréal, respectively, but capturing the championship a year later against the Toronto Argonauts.

		Most stampeders knew little or nothing about where they were going, so pamphlets were available to help them on their way.
		The most common route taken by the stampeders to reach the fields was by boat from the west coast of the continental U.S. to Skagway in Alaska, over the Chilkoot or White Passes to the Yukon River at Whitehorse and then by boat 500 miles to Dawson City.
		Stampeders who gave up often did it here, discarding their unneeded equipment on the side of the trail.

	Skagway--Determining the Facts 1
		Stampeders had to pass through the Moores' property to reach the White Pass Trail.
		The first swarm of stampeders who chose to attempt the White Pass Trail arrived at the Moores' homestead in late July and early August 1897.
		Although most stampeders eventually returned to their homes, some decided to settle in the booming town of Skagway and earn a living providing goods and services to those who continued on to the Klondike.

	Honkin'... The Stampeders
		Are Back" which was released after the band had been reformed and renamed in The Stampeders, now the group around the ex lead singer of the Duetones, Ted Scholz, comes forward with its new EP which the fans of the band had been waiting for impatiently.
		Just as the cathy "Mustang", the other songs on this EP were all written by the Stampeders, which again proves their talent as song writers.
		In contrast to their first EP, however, the Stampeders am not quite puristic this time, but have leanings also towards the "popular" music of the late 50s with the melodious song "I Was A Fool To Believe".

	VH1.com : The Stampeders : Biography - Urge Music Downloads
		The Stampeders were part of this group, a trio originally from Calgary, Alberta, who hit the Top Ten in 1971 with the infectiously catchy "Sweet City Woman." They later charted low in the Hot 100 with "Devil You," and brushed the Top 40 in 1976 with "Hit the Road Jack."
		The Stampeders were originally formed as a rock sextet in 1964, playing the bar circuit in Calgary before they set out for Toronto in 1966, playing local clubs and building a name for themselves.
		A year later, this version of the Stampeders had their first real success on record with the sublimely beautiful country-rocker "Carry Me," which charted in Canada and got released in America.

	The Chilkoot Trail
		Probably not, as we are sitting in a second growth forest, and when the stampeders ran herd over the pass in the winter season the forest was completely denuded so as to provide building materials and the trail was little more than a track of mud and snow.
		The Scales were known as "one of the most wretched spots on the trail." Many stampeders became discouraged at this spot, discarding their equipment and turning back for the coast.
		Today the stampeders have gone, the trees have returned, and the lake shore is used by backpackers.

	Chilkoot Trail (Site not responding. Last check: )
		One is reminded of the struggling stampeders as the tiny dots of fellow hikers are seen dropping over the pass onto the summit snow field.
		It's difficult to imagine that the stampeders had to make as many as 30 trips over this route to ferry their "ton of goods" over the pass.
		But it was the courage and adventure of these early stampeders of 1898 that helped to open up the beautiful wild country that we in Alaska call home.

		To avert food shortages, a Canadian law made it necessary for stampeders to carry a year's supply of goods, which could weigh a ton or more, in order to enter Canada.
		Stampeders set to work cutting trees from the surrounding hillsides and sawing them into planks, improvising the construction of their crafts with gusto.
		Today you can trace much of the stampeders' route with a scenic rail journey and visit to Lake Bennett, where so many spent their winter with dreams of striking it rich.

		All the ingredients which made up the mix were the core behind The Stampeders.

	The Nome Gold Rush, Alaska Science Forum
		If the stampeders of 1899 had followed Johnny Horton's directions to the gold in the 1960 movie "North to Alaska," they would have found themselves treading the cold, salty waters of Norton Sound.
		Curiously, thousands of stampeders walked over it on their way to the creeks before they knew it was there.
		Most of the credit for the Nome gold rush goes to the trio of John Byrnteson, Erik Lindblom and Jafet Lindeberg, who became known as the "The Three Lucky Swedes," although Lindeberg was actually a Norwegian.

		Rigors of the road quickly took their toll and The Stampeders were reduced to Dodson, Kim Berly and Ronnie King by the release of their first lp, AGAINST THE GRAIN in '71.
		Inside a year and a half The Stampeders had three hit singles and had gone from local virtual unknowns to one of Canada's hottest rising stars, truly a feat considering the lack of support Canadian radio gave homegrown artists before the implementation of Canadian content regulations.
		In a time when Canadian radio failed to properly support its own, The Stampeders showed not only their genuine talent in the form of gold records, but their undeniable influence on today's homegrown artists.

		Doug's 1995 season proved to be the most difficult of his CFL career, as he was side- lined for 7-games with an elbow injury.
		He returned to action and led the Stampeders to the Grey Cup game only to lose to the Baltimore Stallions, the first and only time the Grey Cup championship would be presented to a US based team.
		However, there were some who still questioned Fluties ability and talent, focusing on the Stampeders receiving corps widely regarded as the best in the CFL with the likes of Allen Pitts, Vince Danielsen and Dave Sapunjis.

	Wrangell-St. Elias - The Valdez Trail
		Most stampeders reached the district via a largely Canadian route leading from the southeast Alaskan community of Dyea through Chilkoot Pass.
		Unlike the stampeders, who were often too preoccupied to note its spectacular scenery, Dunn recorded a vivid description of the route:
		Stampeders heading for this new strike left the Valdez-Eagle Trail near the Gakona River, crossed the Alaska Range through Isabel Pass, then followed the Tanana River northwest to Fairbanks.

		This will be his first time as head coach of the Stampeders, but he is no stranger to Calgary, having played for the Stampeders in 1976, and been an assistant coach for both the Dinos 1982-1984 and the Stampeders 1985-1992.
