Doug Craig (1934 - 2005)
	
Doug Craig earned a PhD in geological engineering from the University of Wisconsin. He and his wife Joan moved to Whitehorse in 1969 for a three year stay and they never left. He was the head of the federal government's geology office in Whitehorse and later taught science at F.H. Collins secondary school for thirteen years [1979 – 1992]. He was president of the Yukon Agricultural Association until 2004.((Graeme McElheran, "Craig a conservationist to the end." //Yukon News// (Whitehorse), 31 October 2005.)) The Craigs were instrumental in forming ROTS (Recycling Organics Together Society) and the formation of the community gardens along the bluff. The couple was presented with the Commissioner's Award in the 1990s for their community service.((Chuck Tobin, "Doug Craig recalled as 'a dear, dear man'." //Whitehorse Star// (Whitehorse), 28 October 2005.)) Craig joined an international teaching circuit in 1992 and gave his last lectures as an educator in Sweden in 1993.((Graeme McElheran, "Craig a conservationist to the end." //Yukon News// (Whitehorse), 31 October 2005.)) Sweden now has a program to grow Yukon lodge pole pine because of him. He worked with the residents of Pelly Crossing to gather pinecones and send the seed overseas.((Chuck Tobin, "Doug Craig recalled as 'a dear, dear man'." //Whitehorse Star// (Whitehorse), 28 October 2005.))

He and Joan were behind the formation of Boreal Alternative Energy, the organization that began the wind research on Haeckel Hill. ((Chuck Tobin, "Doug Craig recalled as 'a dear, dear man'." //Whitehorse Star// (Whitehorse), 28 October 2005.)) Craig was still gathering data from Haeckel Hill and Mount Sumanik even after he was diagnosed with Parkinson's disease.((Graeme McElheran, "Craig a conservationist to the end." //Yukon News// (Whitehorse), 31 October 2005.))
	
Craig spent years prodding the government until they resurveyed a plane crash near Smithers for radioactive materials and he thought the government gun control program was an infringement on human rights and a colossal waste of taxpayers' money.((Chuck Tobin, "Doug Craig recalled as 'a dear, dear man'." //Whitehorse Star// (Whitehorse), 28 October 2005.)) Craig was diagnosed with multiple myeloma, a rare form of bone cancer, on 11 September 2005 and died on October 25th.((Graeme McElheran, "Craig a conservationist to the end." //Yukon News// (Whitehorse), 31 October 2005.))
