Sea to Sky Highway Road Trip: 15+ Stops on British Columbia's Top Drive

[@AmbientWalking]

I just want to write you to tell you that I had an amazing time journeying with you today. Thanks for all your time and effort in creating this video!

[@patriciatennery3021]

These projects are just beyond any memories but the births of children. Just absolutely amazing. Thanks for sharing.

[@jonblackey1591]

Good for pops on the gondola

[@joycealingas6140]

Josh and Pops, another awesome video! We are currently planning our trip for next summer and you just gave us our next destination! Love your adventures!

[@ThroughMyLens]

So glad you liked it, the Vancouver area is amazing and I hear Vancouver Island / Victoria are both good places to spend time too

[@ecormack1]

Good job, Pops! I got to call this area home for quite a few years. Thank you for taking me back to see it through it fresh eyes.

[@ThroughMyLens]

Wow, it must have been a pretty special area to get to know more

[@jimthompson717]

I live in West Vancouver. I have driven that road since the 70's. On a sunny day it's shockingly gorgeous. But, there's a reason we locals call our home "Raincouver". It only rains once, continuously, from October 1st to April 1st. I'm watching this while in Maui, and it makes me cherish our life in British Columbia.

[@pwc1021]

....and also the reason why we call it the "wet coast" instead of the west coast out here.😂

[@kellyjohnson3617]

Those flowers, foxgloves are everywhere in the PNW. It’s the natural source of digitalis for angina. It’s a gorgeous wild flower.

[@ThroughMyLens]

Oh wow, I didn't know that, it is a beautiful flower

[@windybrown733]

@@ThroughMyLensyep it’s also a poisonous houseplant to kitty’s for this reason.

[@AdventuresofMeganandMike]

Pops commitment to the shot paid off! That’s a great shot he got of you walking on the viewpoint!

[@conniewojahn6445]

Beautiful, gorgeous, amazing. I've always had the idea that part of the world would be great to sightsee. You've proven that. Thank you.

[@rhondaz356]

Your videos are ALWAYS excellent, informative, interesting, and very well prepared and presented, in every way, Josh.👏 Pops is a great addition, as well. 👏🤠🤗🤠👏

[@ThroughMyLens]

Really appreciate the kind words!

[@denaparrish4948]

Beautiful country. Pops you finally faced a fear. Awesome. Love your vids.

[@thedogzoo]

National Geographic needs to hire the both of you. You both are the best narrators. ❤

[@parfenyj]

👏👏👏! That's for Pops defeating that fear of heights like a champ!! 🏆

[@louise3993]

Way to face your fear Pops. 😮 It looks magnificent. Thanks for documenting this trip. As always supper jealous. 😊

[@sandhyapapineau4008]

I live in Canada and have always thought Vancouver was kind of overrated based on many people's experiences but you guys did a great job showing the parts that I guess appeal to my style of travel, so thank you for that! I'm adding it to the list, but it's not the first time you have sold me on a travel destination that I dismissed prior. Well-done! I am so looking forward to the next video!

[@ThroughMyLens]

So glad you enjoyed it! We really did love this drive, it was incredible!

[@gnyphq6405]

Keep in mind, Whistler is actively trying to make it difficult for day trips. Locals only, the "serfs" aren't welcome.

[@mothbythesea]

The west coast is incomparable to anywhere on earth. I grew up in Ontario and after my first time in the west coast I couldn't believe this was my own country. I lived out west for 4 years as a tour guide through the PNW and the rockies and there is nothing like it in the world ❤❤❤

[@Harames]

What an absolutely gorgeous day trip. I need to visit and drive around Canada. Great to see both you and Pops having a good time today

[@kimberleeseei7297]

Josh and Pops, thank you for such a beautiful video! It's just gorgeous there. My grandmother is from British Columbia and hope to visit with my family one day.

[@Dis4Ever-ME]

Go pops you did it, great to see y’all enjoy life together!

[@ThroughMyLens]

We had so many adventures on this trip, it was one to remember for sure

[@markakira8988]

Whoever made that model display at 4:49 two thumbs up. World class, professional, flowing, worth my while video...as usual.

[@andreajohnson1796]

Beautiful views wonderful waterfalls thank you for taking us on a gorgeous exploring, it's a blessing

[@NancysNibblesofLife]

Good job, Pops!! So happy you guys are on the road again!!

[@daviotkelly1267]

Good for your Pops. I have a fear of heights too, man

[@lareverie8285]

I have fear of heights as well and I always enjoy seeing your dad overcome his fear. ❤

[@idw9159]

was in vancouver early june, wonderful city.. never thought to rent car and do that day trip... next time will check it out for sure, great vid guys and well done pops for the cable car ride!

[@jennyc1846]

Spot on Pops.. foxgloves are a classic "English Garden or Cottage Garden plant", not usually considered a wildflower as such I don't think.. or maybe they are in Canada.. love all of the little islands on the Canadian coastline in your video and others. Pops you are so cool.. keep those feet on the ground in your gondola and don't think of the 1000 feet or so Josh keeps telling you about.. but seriously the bridge didn't freak you out.. go you!! No stopping you now Pops :) Stunning scenery Josh thanks so much..... have to send this one to friends who's on lives in Whistler I think or at least works there in Winter.. snowboarding cheers from Western Australia

[@debo9396]

Josh, don't want to get into it, but just want to say that you and your family have made an incredibly positive difference in my life. Thank You and God Bless.....

[@chesabugg]

Love you Pops! You made it!! I would never do that suspension bridge, you're very very brave😅

[@ThroughMyLens]

I was proud he made it to the top for sure

[@ivettaabramyan1079]

Awesome video -- definitely one of the best Vancouver videos I've seen! You got yourself a new subscriber👏🔔

[@rob6879]

Very well done sir and thank you. It has been over 20 years since I lived in North Vancouver. I have seen and somehow forgotten some of the beautiful stops along the way on the Sea To Sky. I've been to the lookout at top of the gondola before the gondola was there and remember the large cracks in the rock that you can peer through and get another perspective of Howe Sound.

[@phxgidget]

Way to go Pops! That was a very high gondola ride! That meal with the meat, potatoes & peas with gravy made me hungry for some comfort food! 😊

[@ThroughMyLens]

Gotta love some good comfort food. I was proud of him as well

[@NomadLifeKiwi]

But in real life, New Zealand does much better pies than Australia 🙂

[@christopherlands2706]

Well done!! This is so inspiring! I’m with Pop’s when it comes to heights but would definitely push it and get on the gondola also 😊 beautiful video!

[@wanderlust62]

Yeah, Pop!!!

[@mikehoang2276]

Just did sea to sky hwy to whistler. It was amazing. Shannon falls, and brandywine falls were beautiful

[@isabellawong8744]

Stay at whistler and go to Joffre lake, a must do

[@LASadvgrrl]

You are making miss my time living in BC for 18 years. TY for the tour and remembering the grass is greener on the otherside.

[@angierainey482]

Great road trip. Way to go Pops!!

[@ThroughMyLens]

It was such a beautiful area

[@jaytee6586]

Hello there! I was the one who said hi to you on your walk to Brandywine Falls at the covered bridge. In fact, we were the group walking at the 12:58 time mark. As always, great video. Glad you and your dad enjoyed that part of BC, Canada. Stay safe!

[@ThroughMyLens]

So great to meet you! Thanks for saying hi!

[@bigjimslade6250]

Beautiful scenery & an epic drive. Way to go Pops 👍for conquering your fears of the 🚠. Now if we see you down in a cave or mine shaft, then we will know that the end of time is close at hand.

[@annette3488]

Pops I’d say NO to the suspension bridge! Great video guys!

[@Xx-ib6bf]

Great job facing your fear of heights, Pops!

[@tamlienhuynh6316]

Very admired your dad, you are very lucky to hv a dad who able to travel with u❤

[@shaunganley]

Another awesome video. As a ski lover from Boston, I've only done this drive in winter, and Whistler in winter, so it's so cool to see the flip season. I've seen and learned things I never knew about from you both!

[@davidnewhouse9403]

I’m the first like. I did it for Pops! Proud of him!

[@ThroughMyLens]

haha thanks for the like!

[@1964mother]

Loved this one, great job Pops! 🤗 👏👏

[@sarahmcbride4518]

LOVE your vids, Josh! They're my absolute favorites!!! Props to pops for tackling his fears.❤ You guys are the best❤❤. I always enjoy your pleasant energy and personality. Beautiful family! Thanks for sharing. Can't WAIT for the next one...

[@rephaelrechitzky9763]

Beautiful guys and bravo to courageous father. Thank you for visiting my beautiful country.

[@ThroughMyLens]

Such a beautiful place, I would love to spend more time there

[@patriciatennery3021]

Proud of Pops.

[@JoJo-cs7be]

The village of Whistler was my favorite! Pops, you were amazing inside the gondola ride! 👍👍 I love this road trip, Josh. Thank you. ❤️👍📣📣🚙🚙

[@maryfettig3378]

Another awesome journey. Thankyou!

[@ofeliaguillermo3214]

It feels to me that we’re with you and Pops adventure ❤❤❤ “Sharing is caring “ , take care always, we want to see more🙏🙏🙏

[@rachel49tucson]

It's stunning and beautiful

[@ThroughMyLens]

It really is!

[@marthak1111]

Pop's did so good!! Love your video's!!!

[@mamaebbie7326]

Way to go Pops!!!

[@merciavorster2824]

Well done pops!

[@SteveSmith-lo8xw]

Isn't that train wreck the site of an excellent Steve Wallis stealth camping episode? Hunker down!

[@GloriaBreske]

This was a great video, as is all of your content! Such beautiful scenery! So proud of Pops for facing his fear! That's a hard thing to do. You've made my already extensive bucket list grow. Look forward to more of your adventures! Thanks for sharing!

[@travelertrome8449]

Wow so beautiful! And that suspension bridge rivals Capilano! The views from the gondola are spectacular. Would love to go through this stretch of highway someday. Kudos to pops for facing his fear! Thanks for sharing!

[@Brett_Wilson]

Pops is awesome!

[@BackroadExploits]

Pops kudos to you for doing that gondola ride, that was wicked steep! I have a great fear of heights but enjoy the views, so I try to suffer through things like this, because afterwards I'm usually happy I did. Such a beautiful park to be marred by discarded trains. Sorry, but I think they should be cut up and removed. Entertaining video as always.

[@poentang]

Wow! This road trip is absolutely scenic, and the places you've chosen to stop are definitely worth visiting, especially the enchanting waterfalls. Thank you so much for sharing. 😍👌

[@kayokolindenberger3754]

Gorgeous views. Thanks for taking us along for the ride!

[@MichaelRei99]

The coldest Winter I ever had was the Summer in British Columbia!

[@ThroughMyLens]

haha!

[@beauealey9300]

It’s been almost 20 years since I have done this trip. Watching your video is bringing back memories. 😍. And yes, Foxgloves grow wild here in the PNW.

[@beauealey9300]

Have you and Pops done the waterfalls here in the Columbia River Gorge? Multnomah Falls is the most famous, but my favorite is Bridal Veil..

[@ingejones5297]

Hi from South Africa! Well done! 😊

[@ThroughMyLens]

Thanks for watching it!

[@jen6202]

Yes, Pops is correct. Those beautiful flowers are called Foxgloves.😊

[@conniewojahn6445]

My mother used to grow them in her garden. They've been cultured from the wild and seed can be purchased at just about any garden center. Care to try growing them?

[@jimfunchess]

Another good one! Thanks!

[@kathyhepler382]

I have been scared to death of a suspense bridge but I have no problem with condolas!!!!

[@ThroughMyLens]

That seems like a more normal fear haha

[@rsd_mtnbiker6422]

LOVED Whistler! You gotta check out Peak To Peak gondola and go on up to Top Of The World…stunning views. It’ll take your breath away.

[@ChauNguyen-rn9oj]

Another beautiful video

[@ThroughMyLens]

Thanks for the tip! Will check it out

[@realalaskaliving]

Loved the video. Funny, as soon as Pops got on the bridge, I too, thought about that part on the Indiana Jones movie. ☺️ You guys make me miss Canada…💕

[@bobbeckman3735]

Thanks. Been on that drive and it is amazing. Next time check out horseshoe bay as well. And here is an upvote for pops.

[@bmolitor615]

just got back 45 minutes ago from a last-gasp-of-summer trip up to Squamish - gonna kick back and see how much overlap we have :)

[@mchozen2958]

So much beauty! I’ve been there a few times but they’ve added so much more . Did anyone else mention the Chief, the mountain you had two great shots of in your video? Or did I miss something?

[@patborecky900]

I just watched this episode. It was too bad it was cloudy because the views at the top of the gondola are stunning. Next time you definitely hike the trail up there because there are even more beautiful views when the sky is blue. Squamish is the name of the town down below. I live on central Van Island another trip you should take.

[@PhotowalksTV]

What an epic trip! Envy! Love BC. Great video, and how cool that you get to have these adventures with your dad.

[@C-TOS]

What a journey. I wish I can do a road trip like that with my parents one day.

[@NomadLifeKiwi]

I'm with Pops on this one. I'm fine with heights and suspension bridges, but don't like the enclosed space of a gondola or an elevator. We're heading up this way next year, finding your videos very informative. Thanks!.

[@Kaptionist]

Hey Josh! Local here -- next time you're back, try hiking Mamquam Falls. It's breathtaking! It's a short, moderate hike with a technical beginning and just pure uphill at the end.

[@annabellegettingwell1531]

I love how pops is not fond of holes and heights! We could have some awesome visits while waiting for you to go through these places 😂

[@popshiking]

@annabellgettingwell1531 That pretty much describes my fears! Holes and heights! Hahaha!

[@LVDesert584]

I love the videos, it’s like going on a little trip

[@biker5662]

Pops, look at you!! You survived the gondola!!😊 Josh, thanks for another amazing video!!

[@popshiking]

@biker5662 Barely survived...it was touch and go for a few minutes there!

It actually not the official end of the highway, 99 Starts at the Mexican border (now it's called I5) transitions back to 99 in Bakersfield and continues to the B-X ranch north of Cache Creek B.C. where it intersects Hwy 97 (which originates in Weed California)and heads north to Alaska

[@joshuabagby2090]

I very much enjoy traveling through your lens. One suggestion: I would love it if you would date your videos for the month of your trips. Since I think many of us preview our own potential trips through travel videos, it helps our planning. In the comments you say this is June, but it came out mid-September. I'm motivated to do this trip! Thanks.

[@NomadLifeKiwi]

This is a great idea, I might start doing this with our travel videos. It would help to see what the weather is like at a certain time.

[@dbj91791]

👍🏽😃 for Pops!

[@annle9671]

Joffre Lake park ,which is further north of Pemberton ,is the last scenic spot. This park has trails that allow you to see Icefields, cold rushing streams and 3 beautiful turquoise blue water lakes. This park along with Whistler are must stops for us local . Joffre lakes is so popular that you have to register for permission to access the park one day ahead of time.

[@MichaelRei99]

FYI when you are panning for gold you have to use the riffles in the pan or you will just wash any gold right out.

[@ThroughMyLens]

Aww ok, good to know!

[@johanna7254]

I don't blame your pops... I'm the same way about heights! I'm okay with certain things, like most bridges and even rock climbing... but being in one those gondola things freaks me out so bad for some reason 😅 Thanks for another amazing video!

[@NomadLifeKiwi]

Gondolas freak me out too for some reason. I think it's the enclosed space. I'm ok-ish on a chair lift for some reason. Makes no sense!

[@Az_VanGo]

I’m constantly impressed by your travels!❤

[@violetbf3773]

When you are on vacations, calories don’t count 😁 I’m glad you guys are enjoying delicious food in all those adventures. 🙌🏽

[@jjjjjj6322]

you are so athletic, finished so many small trips in one day.

[@cathleenlovette3088]

Love your videos...and "like" for Pops on the gondola.

[@nancywickersham7318]

Fantastic video. I would love yo go there and do all this

[@caterlinachung185]

Wonderful... and l am glad that you guys enjoy the beautiful scenery along the Sea to Sky Highway... absolutely packed itinerary and you made it amazingly....next time make sure you check the Stawamus Chief & the Brackendale (for viewing eagles)...well done!!!

[@gemigirl5521]

Always a pleasure to watch!

[@ThroughMyLens]

Thanks, we appreciate it!

[@Chakamo18]

Bro, you was in my backyard trail!! I’m only minutes walk from train wreck! Hope you had a great time

[@MajorAddiction]

I wanna do this in the Fall!

[@KoKiSprout]

Yay! I miss ya videos!

[@ThroughMyLens]

Thanks for watching them!

[@ashleyc1380]

Another epic road trip! Love your adventures with you and Pops,Josh! I'm from Ontario,Canada and go out west to see Alberta and British Columbia every year..so many gems to see..so little time! A couple gems i loved from Alberta were Moraine Lake, Peyto Lake (shaped like a fox) and Lake Louise. Also the tea house hike to the Lake Agnes Tea house, one of the trails directly off Lake Louise is a must do! Takakakaw falls in BC is a must see also! It's super tall and insanely beautiful. Love your videos!

[@tcbtcb]

banff and jasper are way cool.

[@ashleyc1380]

@tcbtcb Definitely. Loved Jasper also! The icefields parkway is unreal! There is so much wildlife, too. An insanely gorgeous road trip!

[@mikeyllo]

Excellent job, Pops!!!! He should probably be studied though. Scared of the lift but okay with the bridge?!?!?! Very interesting.

[@popshiking]

@mikeyllo I laughed out loud! I should definitely have my irrational fears studied!! Hahaha!

When I was a k8d in the 70s it was operated by Anaconda out of Montana and it was LOUD!!!!
