Southwest British Columbia, Canada!

The Trips & Trails series covers much of soutwestern British Columbia Interior from Hope north to Barkerville and from Three Valley Gap, near Revelstoke, west to Bella Coola.

In the south are the prime recreational areas of the Cascade Mountains, the Okanagan Highlands and Monashee Mountains. In the northeast lies the spectacularly beautiful land of waterfalls, giant lakes and dormant volcanoes of Wells Gray Provincial Park. From the Cariboo Mountains, the vast land stretches west across the Cariboo Plateau, the Fraser Canyon, and the Chilcotin Plateau to the Coast Mountains and the Pacific.
