Nature Attractions In Elkford

1. Elk Lakes Provincial Park Elkford
The Elk Lakes cabin is an alpine hut located between the French and Italian Military Groups in the Canadian Rockies, set near the Continental Divide among massive cliff faces, waterfalls, lakes, craggy summits, and hanging icefalls in Elk Lakes Provincial Park, British Columbia. It is 62 km south of the Trans-Canada Highway in Kananaskis Country, Alberta and 104 km north of Sparwood, British Columbia. The area has many easy trails for hiking, while also providing access to more serious mountaineering objectives. In winter, ice climbs abound, and backcountry skiers will find great terrain with lots of powder. Overall, the terrain around the Elk Lakes cabin is quite similar to that near the Elizabeth Parker hut. The hut is maintained by the Alpine Club of Canada.

Leaving from Elkford, BC, we drove approximately 30km North towards Elk Lakes Provincial Park to reach our trail head. From there the trail takes 17km to reach a small cabin at the North end of Connor Lake. After a long day on your feet, sometimes you have to drop to one knee...

Valemount British Columbia Canada - Driving in Town - Cariboo, Monashee, Rocky Mountains

BC Hwy 3: Cranbrook - Fernie BC (Time Lapse)

Highway 3 follows the southern-most pass through the Canadian Rockies (Crowsnest Pass). In this video, we travel the 96 km between Cranbrook and Fernie, British Columbia. The last 1/3 of the video is the most impressive as we have to make our way through a narrow pass just before Fernie. I recorded the Crowsnest Pass in a separate video, so look for that at a later date!

Crowsnest Pass - Driving from Alberta to Sparwood, British Columbia (BC) - Highway Drive Tour

There's a bit of life around the Crowsnest Pass in Alberta, Canada.

We officially go over the border of Alberta and BC at 14:15 (see the sign to the right). By 20:27 we are about to enter Sparwood.

6:38 has probably the biggest roadkill I've seen in my life. Let's slow down for the animals...
