    Thanks for the great review of my beloved town, home for the last 16 plus years. Something that was missed out on mentioning, is the concept that we are a coal mining town, before being a tourist town. :)

    Yuppers! The #1 economy is/was/has been Coal Mining (hence the worlds biggest truck located in Sparwood) The #2 was logging (hence the saw mill in Elko) & #3 is tourism. @@CubbyVanLife

    correction, not all Canadian provincial parks are free: some do indeed charge day use fees (sometimes per head).

    @CubbyVanLife I stayed in a motorcycle campground 2 hours before there. It's beautiful thru the crowsnest pass. I've traveled the Trans Canada Highway from east to west. This has to be my favorite road to ride yet.
