The Painted Chasm
The Painted Chasm is a wonderful place to visit in spring. You can find it just south of 70 Mile; a few short kilometers off highway 97. When the last ice age glacier was melting, a stream cut through the lave here to form this Chasm. You can see the coloured lines which represent the […]
