The TCH (Trans Canada Highway) starts, or ends, in British Columbia's provincial Capital city.

From Victoria, the TCH moves North West to the ferry terminal in Nanaimo and then by MV (Motor Vessel) to the ferry terminal in Horseshoe Bay on the B. C. mainland.

Very little of the TCH has been widened to 4 lanes.

Though us truckers, who get paid by the mile, really would love to see the TCH become 4 lanes, for its entire length, so we wouldn't be stuck behind scenery gawking tourists, in the summer, and people who don't know how to drive on ice, in the winter, it really isn't cost effective.

Highways, like everything else that is built by governments, must be paid for out of the general revenue.

General revenue is generated by taxes. Of which we all pay too much already.

So if you want to widen a highway, at a cost of $10,000,000 per Kilometer, and the TCH is the longest highway in the world, 7,821 Km. from Victoria, B. C. to St. John's, Newfoundland, and the population of Canada is only 30 million people, and don't forget the ferry system, across the Georgia Strait, and the bridges across all the rivers, and the other important things that the government must buy, like paying off some ex prime minister because he sued the government for slandering his good name, like he ever had a good name to begin with.

Well, anyway, you can see why we poor taxpayers just can't afford to have our one major highway, widened into a freeway.

These are some of the pictures I took, through the windshield, along B. C.'s Highway 1.

Just before the exit to the scales is a busy entrance from a side street.

Many accidents have happened here as trucks are slowing down to exit while cars and trucks are speeding up to enter.

I have written to the government suggesting the on ramp go behind the scales and join the highway further East but they just ignore my letters.

(Trucks lined up at the port Mann scales.)

JUNCTION FOR 200 STREET
ANOTHER WASTE OF TAXPAYERS MONEY

I didn't bother to write to the government about this one.

We have a female minister of highways, who obviously has no idea how to drive, let alone build a highway. She probably doesn't even have a drivers license.

At this junction she has taken a perfectly straight stretch of street and put a jog into it, nearly a quarter of a mile to the West.

Then instead of making a proper cloverleaf she has made several intersections, with lights, on both sides of the freeway.

Talk about a traffic snafu.

From the 200 th St. Junction to Abbotsford there is not much to see.

It is like driving down a long green tunnel.

Very much like the Hwy. 27 in Florida, both sides of the roadway, and the median, are lined with tall trees.

Most people, who are North bound, turn off here, to avoid the town of Hope. Hwy. 7a rejoins Hwy. 1, just North of Hope.
Continuing East will give you more miles of freeway but then you have to traverse the streets and light-controlled intersections of Hope.
This isn't a big deal but it can be confusing finding the turnoff from the freeway before Hope as the freeway continues East to become Highway 3.
Going North, on Hwy. 9, though not freeway, is mostly high speed highway with only a couple of minor hills.

The first time I traversed the Fraser Canyon, I believe, was in 1965.
At that time, they were still paving many sections.
Some of the tunnels were still under construction and the new Alexandra bridge wasn't open.
We had to work our way down the side of the cliff to the old bridge, then back up the other side.
`VANISHING BRITISH COLUMBIA' has an interesting page `ALEXANDRA BRIDGE'.

JACKASS MOUNTAIN SUMMIT

Donkey, also know as an ass. Jack, the male of the two genders. Consequently, jack ass, or jackass.

In the mid 1800s there was a rush for gold in the Cariboo Valley. The only access to that area was up the Fraser River. However the river is not navigateable past the town of Yale.

Somewhere, after the paddle wheel boats came to a stop, everyone, and everything, had to proceed by horseback, or donkey. There was no road and the trail was often very narrow, often along sheer cliffs.

Some enterprising teamster came up with the brilliant idea that camels could carry more than donkeys, so, he imported some.

It turns out that donkeys do not like the smell of camels.

One day, while a pack train of donkeys were navigating the one-donkey-wide trail around the edge of a steep mountain, they met a pack train of camels moving in the opposite direction.

Much confusion resulted as the donkeys started to kick up a fuss. Braying and bucking, they proceeded to launch; themselves, their packs, and their teamsters, into space, only to crash onto the rocks along the river, hundreds of feet below.

In memory of this event the hill got its name, Jackass Mtn.

Rumour has it that, at that time, or some time later, the entrepreneur who had bought the camels turned them loose into the wilds of B. C. (British Columbia).

Obviously none of them survived. At least no one has ever seen a wild camel in B. C.
