Hell's Gate
This summer we went to Hell's Gate with some friends. Its a few hours east of Vancouver and features a cable car (pictured above), a fish ladder and fisheries museum, fudge store and a haunted stove. Yes, a haunted stove... legend has it that the stove gets warm in the summer because of the Chinese cook ghost that haunts it, not because of direct sunlight or anything.There's also a bridge across the water lower down and a railway line running through the area. Every year during the spring melt the water comes very high and close to the bottom of the bridge, having washed out earlier and unfortunately lower bridges. The rocks in the panorama are scoured white by the fast waters.
