I know I already crossed in to BC for a day earlier, but now I'm officially heading into the province! and I've crossed the continental divide!

Heading into Kootenay National Park, I stopped at Marble Canyon for a little hike

Next up were the paint pots, super vibrant mud!

Even the rest areas are beautiful, this was a spot I pulled off to take a break from driving and was just a short walk down river.

And oh no! I just found out my friend Veronica is moving back to Ontario at the end of the month, and I was hoping to go visit her in Terrace, so hit the road and headed to Golden (got some surprisingly good indian food) back through Yoho to start and head north, It was starting to get pretty cold in the rockies, and my tires were still some not great all season ones so I decided to stay at the bottom of the giant hill and wait for it to warm up before heading back out.

It's hard to see it in the second picture, but heading back up the hill I stopped by a view point of the spiral tunnel again. Theres a train tunnel that spirals underground to get up the hill because it's too steep to just go straight up. In the picture you can kinda see the train passing through the frame 3 times.

Back at whistlers campground, the coffee trailer was still operating! So I got a nice latte and had a nice chat about traveling with the barista :)

I stopped by Mount Robson which is the tallest peak in the Canadian rockies, I unfortunately didn't get a chance to do any hiking, but I'll be back!

An absolutely gorgeous camping spot down on a pebble beach of a river.

I made it to Terrace before Veronica left! And oh my! what a beautiful home, the view was spectacular, and I had a visit from Loki, the coolest cat in the world.

We went adventuring and went to these lava fields, all of the lichen! And mushrooms had started to grow :)

A few stops at some gorgeous waterfall just off the road.

A suspension bridge and of course some mountain views

and this tree, I love this tree :)

After a lovely visit, it was time for me to get out of the north before winter came. I headed to Prince Rupert to catch the ferry and had sushi at a little place by the Harbour Veronica recommended.
