Yellowhead Highway




The last two days found us driving across British Columbia on the Yellowhead Highway. As so often been the case, we seem to find the most wonderful places everywhere we go. Today we came across the "Ancient Forest" apparently the oldest temperate inland rain forest in the hemisphere. These giant ceders and associated plants were truly amazing, even to jaded redwood folk like us. I want to point out here that certainly British Columbia and probably all of Canada is putting out the red carpet for tourism. Not only are the people most welcoming, but all the individual cities seem to be decked out in their best apparel. If anyone reading this has considered a road trip up here I highly recommend you come up and do it!
Tomorrow we head into Jasper and Banff National Parks to see some more incredible country, but probably won't post for a few days.
I have put a few more pics on My Galleries page
