Western Canada is renowned for its spectacular alpine scenery, for the striking art of its Pacific West Coast natives, and for its abundant wildlife.
The Traveler's Western Canada Companion guides you through this grand region from its peerless great outdoors to its booming, youthful cities. Take in Vancouver's magnificent western seaboard setting; Calgary's cowboy-style boomtown modernity and Winnipeg's cultural treasures. Marvel at natural wonders: the aquamarine waters of Lake Louise, the ancient rainforests of British Columbia, and the alpine heights of the Canadian Rockies. Journey to Canada's off-the-beaten-path treasures: Alberta's fossil-rich badlands, the Yukon's glacier-locked Kluane National Park and the Inland Passage, Canada's historic inland waterway. Along the way, the authors share their experience and frank opinions, offering recommendations for recreation from heli-skiing to rail tours, dining options from the Ukrainian flavors of Winnipeg to the Asian tang of Vancouver, and exceptional accommodation to suit all tastes and pockets.
