Trip - Part One -- Vancouver to Yorkton

I took a few pictures as I was driving -- probably not the best idea.

Vancouver to Cranbrook -- aprox 980 kms. Total driving time 11 hours.

This is as I am coming down a big hill towards Osoyoos B.C. - in the Okanogan valley. It is a lovely - hot, dry area of B.C. Lots of vineyards and wineries in the area - plus fruit orchards - growing peaches, cherries, plums, apples etc.



A little truck accident I drove by just outside Grand Forks B.C.



Here is a picture of the Creston B.C. valley area - just about 130 kms to Cranbrook now.



After a few days in Cranbrook I drove to Calgary --- 400 kms from Cranbrook to Calgary.

Then Jessica, Hunter and I drove to Yorkton Sask --- 960 kms from Calgary to Yorkton.

Here is a picture of Jessica and Hunter in front of the big moose in Moose Jaw Sask.



And our final destination -- Yorkton Sask.


Total distance driven to this point -- aprox 2300 km.

    Thanks for the trip! I am a native of Saskatchewan as I was born there. I spent some summers growing up with my aunt and uncle. They showed heavy horses at the Yorkton fair every year. I love the moose! It is a great landmark. I am headed to Sask. at the end of August. I will have to remember to take photos as I head along.

    Hi Pam,
    What nice pictures of your trip- especially nice of Jessica and Hunter.
    There is nothing like prairie sky( I know spoken like a true prairie girl). The picture of the mountains are beautiful too.

    Regards,
    Anna

    Thanks for sharing your drive with us. Yorkton doesn't look as nice as the BC pictures.
