April 18th – Drive to Whistler




At first I thought maybe the drive would be nothing special, but man I was wrong. Just past Kamloops it was pretty scenic, and I would highly recommend this route to Whistler. The terrain and vegetation changed dramatically. The hills had some cool red in its soil, combined with a grass/low shrub vegetation that gave the place a desert feeling. You have to see the picture yourself to get what I’m saying. The city of Kamloops itself seemed ok (nothing special), I had stopped there for lunch at a fast food Mexican restaurant in downtown area (Lansdowne Village).

As I kept driving further west (approaching Whistler), the scenery changed back to familiar conifer trees and super mountainous terrain. This made the driving again pretty thrilling because I was making super sharp turns and going up and down big inclines.
