What to see near CANYON ALPINE BC
The Fraser River
The Fraser River is the largest fish producing water course in the province. The Fraser is also the worlds largest supporter of the spawning Sockeye salmon. Because of this, millions of Spring, Coho, Chum, Pink and Sockeye salmon pass through the canyon on their way to spawning grounds every year. Canada's second largest river is over 1,300 km long. It is one of the most commercially rafted rivers in the world. In the Canyon the river is wedged between the Cascade Mountain Range and the Coastal Pacific Mountain Range. The narrow rock canyon walls cut a windy and narrow passage for the mighty Fraser that rips through this vigorous landscape.
