      I play with it a bit the next 2 weeks, I think I've settled on the position of the cam. I'll definitely use it whenever it's safe to do so.

    Great view of the canyon at the 11 minute mark. Having the camera at the top of the load certainly gives a wonderful perspective!

      I think it would be cool to find as much info about Highway 3 as I stop at all the points of interest. Likely will have to do that in our pickup.

    @24:54, if you turn left, follow the pavement for about 2 km through the collection of cabins. The road then turns to rough gravel as you cross the bridge over the Skagit, and I believe goes up and follows the Skagit for 40 km. It’s on my bucket list. 🌲🤙

    Nice to see you driving that route. I go to Manning Park yearly for a hike. The place where you parked your truck at the hope slide is where I park to take a rest break. The hope slide looked more impressive years ago when there wasn't as much trees on the slope.

      Great view from the top of the load shows how steep the cliffs are. You should do it more often. If it is safe to do, I wouldn't want you falling off your load again

    • @JuanRempel
      @JuanRempel  2 месяца назад +2

      Yes, I agree, I like ot enough, I asked the shipper to load me a bit different on one load just to make it easy to use this cam. Tried some stuff in future videos that didn't work as well, but this camera actually makes the road feel narrow and steep.

      ⁠@@garthjones3747yes, my bad. Thats what happens when I comment early into a video. I too remember the slide, as my family were on our way to vacation in the Okanagan and had to drive the makeshift gravel road they had cut through the slide. I was in awe, looking at the opposite mtn side stripped of its trees by the slide, before it settled into the valley. 🤙

    The engineers' road you mentioned was originally called the Dewdney Trail. It was built in the 1860s and was a packhorse trail only, four feet wide, so not as wide as the Cariboo Road through the Fraser Canyon. It ran from Hope to Fort Steele, and as the automobile age came in the 1920s, most of the trail was converted into a road. However, the Hope-Princeton section remained a trail until the 1940s, when the Hope-Princeton Highway was built, using Japanese-Canadian internees living at the Tashme internment camp in Sunshine Valley, not far from where the Hope Slide occurred in 1965.
