History
Henry Stanley Irwin (1890-1966) started work at Barnet mill in 1924. Henry and his wife Elsie May Irwin (Taylor) Irwin (1894-1985) first lived with thier two daughters, Eleanor (Nelson) (1924-2005) and Louise (1927-) in a worker's cabin before moving to the Barnet Mill's managers' residence. The household included Elsie's mother, Elizabeth (Shephard) Taylor (1868-1950). The family resided at Barnet until they moved to Vancouver in September 1939. Louise and her older sister Eleanor attended Barnet School like other children in the Barnet area. After the mill closed in 1931, Henry was unemployed for two years, during this time, he hired a horse and driver and cut logs from the slopes of Burnaby Mountain to support his family.

Notes
Title based on caption
Collected by editorial for use in a January 2002 issue of the Burnaby NewsLeader
Caption from metadata: "Gabriel Krickan, 6, and his dad, Jason, take a run on their toboggan at Burnaby Mountain Park. Weekend rain turned to snow at higher elevations, leaving the hillside at the park covered with a couple of inches of the white stuff, enough for a patch of winter wonderland."
