Best Places to See in BC - Ashlu River



One of the prettiest and wildest
rivers I have seen in BC is the
Ashlu River.
The Ashlu is northwest of Squamish and
is famous amongst white
water kayakers for its
rapid drops and canyon vistas.
All part of the drainage system for the
Pemberton Icefield
and emptying into the Squamish River,
the Ashlu River system is rugged and beautiful
and a must see for anyone wanting to explore the
beauty of British Columbia.
The adventures are endless.

Best Places to See in BC, The Elaho River


I've just recently heard about the
Elaho River in British Columbia. And of course
I had to go check it out for myself.

After spending several days in the
area I have to admit to being overawed
at the gigantic beauty of this whole region.
The Elaho River is a tributary of the
Squamish River which originates
at the Pemberton Icefield.
In places the Elaho is gentle and
sublime. In others she is wild and
virtually untamed.
She is one of the foremost rivers in
BC for whitewater rafting and kayaking.
She is a beautiful shade of turquoise which
means a glacier fed river.

Seldom am I
short for words to describe the beauty
I have been privileged to see.
This is one of those times.
