Road Trip: Grande Prairie to Prince George
Loading...
Uploaded by jillenium00 on Apr 8, 2008
I was hoping to go south to the land of milk and hunny for easter weekend but couldn't find a dogsitter. Desperate to get out of town, I went to the only place that could accommodate me and my dogs on short notice: a cheap motel full of some drunks doing bush work in northern Alberta.
This highway crosses the Rocky Mountains via Pine Pass, the most northern crossing of the Rockies. It's also the most treacherous, but I was catching it on the tail end of winter so the roads were good.
The drive from GP to PG is about 6-7 hours. Every clip is in the order that it was shot.
Music: Kings of Leon - On Call
Because of the Times is, hands down, my favourite American alblum in recent years...but underexposed in Canada, unfortunately

Very nice! I live in G.P. and my family and I often drove to P.G. from near Chetwynd, so this video shows a lot of areas I have seen. It's really cool to see it on YouTube. :) Thanks!

Cool! That looks better. It also changes other things on the page, interestingly.

Have you already been through this area? If not I am impressed with your camera set up abilities on the fly. :)

Ya, a few times in the summer. Thing with landscapes though is they never really sneak up on you. You usually see them coming.

That's kind of a sad song for a road trip. :(

True. But sometimes landscapes make me sad.
