Our thoughts are with the Tk’emlúps te Secwépemc, neigbouring Nations, and all who mourn on this five-year anniversary of the announcement of the discovery of the remains of over 200 children found on the site of the former Kamloops Indian Residential School. It is a grim reminder of this dark chapter of Canadian history. The Royal BC Museum honours all Indigenous nations and works in collaboration to find the truth about the Indian Residential School system and missing children. We will continue to walk this path together.

Thanks for including us Modern Traveller. You can also not drive and ride a bicycle to get away on the KVR Trail east from Rock Creek to Castlegar.

Here are 10 superb stops I made while flying, err, driving on Crowsnest Highway 3. Pardon the pun; didn’t mean to ruffle any feathers…
