LUCKY LAGER ROAD TRIP
BRITISH COLUMBIA
PEMBERTON AREA
October 24, 2015
Miles: 50 / Total Trip Miles: 2,172
Pemberton (elevation 690 ft / population 3,400) is a ski town without ski lifts and groomed slopes. The mountains have not been scarred by ski runs. For winter recreation, Pemberton does offer cross-country skiing, backcountry skiing, and snowmobiling. The area's real personality is characterized by vast potato fields, farms tucked behind rows of cottonwood trees, and cattle cavorting in pastures.
Today's weather was coolish—high 40s F. My hotel room has terrific views of mountains, cedar forests, and aspen trees. Best sight of the day (sorry no pics) was a bear walking along the road in town with white stuff stuck to its fur—looked like the bear had been in a pillow fight.
