Fraser canyon
This one is already from almost two years ago and is in the Fraser canyon. I had two shots that I wanted to post (this was the one earlier, www.flickr.com/photos/115540984@N02/24065107383), and already forgotten about it. But I still haven't finished my Canada pictures so now and then i go back to look what there is still left to do. The Fraser canyon is a miracle. Between the lush and green Rockies, and the green coastal areas around Vancouver that more looks like arctic landscape with a lot of pines, there is this stretch of ca 150 km where it is arid, dry and very warm (on this day temperatures rose to 37 C).
From 11 June till the 25th of July, I traveled in Canada.
Starting in Brighton Ontario, where my sister lives at the border of an amazing part of lake Ontario, I flew to Vancouver, and Vancouver island where I took the boat at Port Hardy to take part 1 of the Inside passage, to Prince Rupert in BC. Two days later I took part 2 to Skagway in Alaska. When coming from Skagway Alaska, you can take the train to Carcross. it is a very scenic train ride that halts at Bennet lake.
And then to Whitehorse and further on by car to Kluane National park in the Yukon district. Whitehorse is situated at the border of the Yukon. From there I flew back to Vancouver, rented a car, and traveled three weeks in the BC- and Alberta Rockies, visiting the famous, and less famous Nature parks like Banff and Jasper. Last few days back to Brighton Ontario to enjoy lake Ontario once more, before going home. A picture of my itinerary can be found on Facebook (www.facebook.com/photo.php?fbid=10152940536581759&set...).
