76.1 | Mountains, rivers, wildlife etc. | GENRAL::WOESTEHOFF | It's the singer, not the song | Thu Jun 05 1986 16:16 | 11 |

The suggestion that I have is not exactly in British Columbia but may
be close enough for you to consider. That is the Ice Fields Parkway
which goes between Banff and Jasper in western Alberta. It would be very
hard for anyone to convince me that there is a better ride in North America.
For more details on the Ice Fields Parkway, check out note #9.
If you are interested, I would be glad to answer any questions.

76.2 | I was there | SUPER::CONNELL | | Thu Jun 05 1986 17:07 | 15 |
| I did this ride.
The best roads were North out of Vancouver B.C. along the coast.
Beautiful fiords with little ferries to take you across.
After a ways you can take a ferry West to Vancouver Island then
ride South down the island to Victoria (a great city). Check out
the Empress Hotel at night with all the tiny lights lighting it
up.
Also, there are great hiker/biker camping areas in Washington and
Oregon. Lots of good company around the campfire at night.

76.3 | If you're flying "here" to Seattle | FURILO::BLESSLEY | | Thu Jun 12 1986 09:44 | 9 |
| Another vote for the ferry - I took the ferry from Vancouver to
Victoria, then on to Seattle, rather than flying back from Vancouver
to Boston. Including the cost of the ferry, dinner in Seattle (would
have gotten it on the plane), overnight stay at a real nice place
in Seattle - still saved about $40 on airfare (national 'stead of
international)
