View from our camp site.
We were on our way this morning by 10:30. We traveled on Hwy 1. The country is very pretty as you get up into the mountain area. We went through a number of tunnels carved through the rugged rock cliffs.

We stopped at Hell’s Gate in Fraser Canyon. There is over 200 million gallons of water per minute thundering through the narrow passage at the gorge. You get a bird’s eye view of the canyon as you glide down 500ft on the air tram into the canyon. You can walk out on the suspension bridge and get a beautiful view up and down the river. The river swirls down the canyon at a very rapid rate.

The tram was fun to ride. We ate lunch at the café in the canyon. We tried salmon chowder. It was ok. For dessert it was a double dip ice cream cone.

It was already 2pm when we finished there so we decided to go on up the road just above Boston Bar and pull into a campground for the night.
