Canada Road Trip: Majestic Mountains.

Описание: Today’s journey took us from Kamloops to Golden, British Columbia, along one of the most dramatic and scenic stretches of the Trans-Canada Highway—a route carved through vast forest, powerful rivers, and towering mountains.
It was a day of contrasts: lush green hills, blackened tree trunks, cool alpine lakes beside wildfire scars, and long empty roads that lead us straight into the heart of the Columbia Mountains.
We started the day in Kamloops, a high-desert city where the Thompson Rivers meet.
We started noticing signs of something sobering: the remnants of wildfires that swept through the Interior of British Columbia over the past few years. Between 2021 and 2023, intense fire seasons left their mark on this region. People were evacuated and whole hillsides near Salmon Arm and the Shuswap area were scorched,. You’ll see long lines of blackened trees standing beside the highway -- so sad.
But In many places, fresh green shoots are already pushing through the ash.

This route is a marvel of modern engineering—and history. The Canadian Pacific Railway originally carved its path through this pass in the 1880s, and today the highway follows a similar route, with mountains rising on both sides, snow patches still clinging to their peaks in summer.

The road climbs to over 1,300 meters (4,300 feet) at its summit, and on a clear day, you can see Mount Sir Donald and other iconic peaks of the Selkirk Range.
