Great Canadian Parks -

Tweedsmuir is the largest provincial park in British Columbia. The Park's rich valleys provide refuge for a high density of grizzly bears. A few backcountry lodges penetrate the wilderness. A trail crosses the south end of the park, commemorating Alexander Mackenzie's 1793 journey, the first land crossing of continental North America. SERIES SUMMARY: Great Canadian Parks celebrates the incredible diversity of Canada's natural environments, by exploring the natural history and cultural heritage of its protected areas.

From the Rocky Mountains to the Atlantic Ocean, with the great forests and plains in between, Great Canadian Parks discovers what makes each of these great parks unique, it's topography, wildlife inhabitants and hidden treasures. We examine the elements that tie them together in one of the most comprehensive park systems in the world. Great Canadian Parks offers a stunningly beautiful collection of episodes characterized by abundant wildlife, stunning natural beauty and compelling stories. Host Peter Trueman asks the questions of the people who know their parks, and visits the people who love and use them. It is an exploration of Canada through its Great Canadian Parks.
