#1 hwy north of Hope, near Yale

Gateway to the old Transcanada Highway!

One of my favorite roads is the original Transcanada (#1) highway the runs north from Hope to Cache Creek and then east to Kamloops. You *can* take the shorter and faster (by about an hour) Coquihalla route from Hope to Kamloops. This is a toll road and is great if time is limited. But if you have a whole day to spend getting from Vancouver to Kamloops, I would definitely recommend this road (or the Duffy Lake Road from Whistler to Cache Creek) as a much more scenic and relaxing option to the Coquihalla.
