Day 13: Sun Peaks to Whistler.
Spent most of the day travelling between the ski resorts of Sun Peaks and Whistler, both in British Columbia and it was quite difficult to get good shots as most were taken though the windows of the coach as this one was.
The leeward side of the Coast Mts receives only about 20" of rain per year and the country takes on a wild west look. In fact we were told that many westerns were shot in this part of Canada.
The road follows the Fraser River for may miles and the river has carved out a very respectable canyon.
Three "R"s? River, Road and Railway. The railway is just above the road and you can see a tunnel in the side of the mountain.
(We are now back from our travels and due to lack of time and suitable internet access for the past two weeks, I am now way behind and have thousands of photos to sort through. I have decided that the best way to catch up will be to make two posting each day, one in the morning and one at night in chronological order. That should mean that I will have caught up by the end of the month. Well that’s the plan anyway.)
