Fall 2007 issue is printed!
From editor Anita Willis:
Our latest issue profiles the wild grandeur of the Cariboo-Chilcotin, a fabled frontier of ranchlands and grasslands, ancient hoodoos and river-carved gorges. We are proud to showcase the photography of Chris Harris, who lives in the Cariboo near 100 Mile House. His work showcases the splendid and subtle beauty of this region’s diminishing grassland areas, vividly described in the cover story by Vancouver writer Brian Payton.
Also in the region, we introduce you to the restored Cariboo mining town of Wells. This great little-known getaway is often overlooked by travellers hot-footing it to historic Barkerville. Those who take the time to stop in will find a rich network of mountain trails to hike and bike, and in town, a colourful influx of artists who are literally painting the town red–and pink, and purple, and yellow, and sky blue.
The North is also highlighted in this issue, with a paddling trip on the Nation Lakes chain–the best paddling trip you’ve never heard of! And two secret gold-mining villages in the Omineca region: Manson Creek and Germansen Landing.
Plus: endearing sea otters, Vancouver’s historic Avalon Dairy, and wilderness first-aid advice that could save a life–maybe even your own. A great issue: don’t miss it!
