Aspen trees, British Columbia

If you drive along the Stweart-Cassiar Highway in British Columbia in fall, you"re in for a colourful treat. This scenic road in the north-west of the province connects Kitimat with the Yukon border. It winds its way through some stunningly rugged locations, taking drivers past lakes, through forests and around mountains. But it"s in fall that it truly comes to life, with the aspen trees along the route shedding their summer green colouring.
