The North Shore Mountains are a spectacular part of the Vancouver city skyline. These mountains are made of granite, and the Ice Age coastline was 150 m above the current sea level, showing how much the land rose once the weight of glaciers was lifted. Today's mile maritime climate enables Douglas firs to grow to 100 metres, and the red cedars and western hemlock grow to unusual size as well. For those who have time, should take rides to the top of Cypress or Grouse Mountains, or hike the deep forest trails around and below the Capilano and Lynne Valley suspension bridges which hang high above the deep valleys.

The Upper Levels Highway was Canada's original "highway 401" and was relabeled the "#1" as it became part of the Trans-Canada Highway system. The Trans-Canada never really goes "through" Vancouver, but grants fleeting views from the north. The highway drops elevation quickly and you may see the snow-covered triangular Mount Baker in the distance (in Washington State), and when crossing the Second Narrows (Ironworkers Memorial) Bridge, you can also see Burnaby Mountain and significant bulk oil terminals to the east of the bridge, and Vancouver's waterfront, skyline, and magnificent Stanley Park to the west.

The highway then winds along Vancouver's boundary with Burnaby to New Westminster on the Fraser River. In Burnaby, the highway passes just south of Burnaby Lake with its recreational and cultural facilities, and a bit further north is Burnaby Mountain with the magnificent Arthur Ericson-designed Simon Fraser University perched atop.



The Port Mann Bridge crosses the Fraser River into Surrey, Langley and the lush farmlands of the "Lower Mainland". From the bridge, you see log booms, lumber mills, and-in season-fishermen harvesting the seasonal salmon runs that continue for 800 kilometres inland. The lush Fraser Valley is western Canada's largest fruit, vegetable, and flower growing area, with large farms on both sides of the highway. Midway between Chilliwack and Abbotsford, on the south side of the highway, is the beautiful Bridal Veil Falls. East of Abbotsford you will notice drainage channels built in 1929 that have enabled cultivation of thousands of hectares of former marshlands.

The town of Hope grew quickly in 1858 when gold was discovered in several areas further up the Fraser River. The town is surrounded by stunning scenery, where mountains tower a kilometer or more over the river valley, and was showcased in Silvester Stallone's "First Blood" action movie, filmed nearby.
