On arriving to Shuswap in the interior of BC we headed up the river from Shuswap Lake.  At this time of year the red Sockeye Salmon return up the river to lay their eggs and then they actually die.  I had never seen so many fish in a river at once and them being red was even more surreal.  Unfortunately my camera wasn’t good enough to get a clear photo but I honestly believe I could have walked across the river on the salmon there was that many of them.

The next day we went on a drive to Revelstoke and then hiked up Revelstoke Mountain.  We had the whole mountain to ourselves and got some fantastic views.  In the evening the hostel we were staying at put on a Thanksgiving dinner, since it was Canadian Thanksgiving, which was really tasty!

On the way back to Vancouver we drove back via the Duffy Lake Road.  It was a stunning day and we were treated to some stunning mountain views!
