Years ago, a few friends got together and drove from Salt Lake to Calgary, then on to Edmonton. We spent a fun week there before heading west to Jasper, Lake Louise, & Banff. I was complete blown away by the beauty. Penticton lakes had the bluest water, and 100 miles east of Vancouver we saw a sign that read; "Breathe mountain air at sea level." Every turn in the road brought more beauty. Vancouver was great, Seattle was Seattle, and we headed southeast to Boise & back to Utah. I have great memories of that trip. I still remember chesterfields and serviettes too!

@elihiebert39503 жыл бұрын
It's about one hour longer to go through Calgary. So if you take the TransCanada Highway from Vancouver to Calgary, then head north on Highway 2 to Edmonton, it will take 13 hours.

we left around 6am, don't think we saw any moose that time. We've seen moose there in the past though, over yellowhead pass, through the rockies. To see more wildlife in that area, spend the night in Valemount, BC, then hit the road at the crack of dawn and drive through the pass at feeding time.

We used a gopro with a gopro suction cup mount. We have 3 64GB micro SD cards, which hold about 5.5 hours of 1080p video each. We just pulled over to change the SD card, doing it without bumping the positioning of the go pro to make it seamless.

Here is a very good joke for you. Whenever you are in that part of Alberta. Where is the worst place to have a flat tire? In No Jack. If you look really closely on the road map. No Jack really does exist. It is on a section of the old highway there. It is so small. If you blink. you miss it.
