It's "ʔəyalməxʷ" in Squamish, which more or less sounds the same.
Just hope that whatever they go with, it's one clear, distinct name (e.g. Iyalmakh) that everybody can say so that "Jericho" can be dropped altogether.

It
is a "recommended" alignment, after all. Sasamat's west of that green rectangle that's supposed to be Trimble Park; from the report, it looks like TransLink wants an Alma-Jericho-Blanca option.

Since 2008, the lands west of Blanca Street within the University Endowment Lands that currently house the University Golf Club have been owned fee simple by xʷməθkʷəy̓ əm (Musqueam Indian Band). A covenant currently stipulates that the property must remain a golf course until at least 2083. Land use within the UEL is governed directly by the Province through the Ministry of Municipal Affairs. TransLink plans to explore if provision of future stations in this area should be delivered if and when redevelopment of these lands occurs. This could provide an opportunity for a station that could serve both the eastern portion of the University Golf Course and West Point Grey Village in the future.

Looks like this is only for the Vancouver side (because it's for City Council), not the UBC side. There's been previous discussion of an elevated line west of Blanca.
