TWEEDSMUIR

British Columbia's Park of Many Colours

Paddling through drifting mist under snow-capped peaks, horseback riding amidst the colours of the Rainbow Range and hiking to one of Canada's most awe-inspiring waterfalls - all these images capture the essence of exploration.

The Turner Lakes offer a spectacular and remote 3-5 day wilderness canoe adventure. The chain features seven lakes with short lining creeks and portages. There is great fishing and many people choose to combine their canoe adventure with a several day hiking trip to the alpine. This trip is suitable for intermediate paddlers - a wonderful follow-up trip for those who have completed the Bowron Lake canoe circuit.

Tweedsmuir's 55 colour photographs will delight many people, while its geological passages and diagrams will illuminate the origins of the Rainbow Range and Ptarmigan Lake area. For those who have traveled in the park, it will recall the magic they experienced there; for those who have yet to go, it will be an inspiration to visit British Columbia's oldest and largest park.
