Sweet Views and Spicy Tacos: A Road Trip Through The Cariboo and Fraser Canyon
Join Mouse and I as we leave our cozy off-grid forest bunkie for a road trip through beautiful British Columbia! In this episode, we brave one of the hottest days of the year to explore some of the region's most stunning locations and indulge in local treats.
Our adventure begins with a short but challenging hike to the Begbie Summit Fire Watch Tower. Despite the scorching heat, we push on to reach the highest point in the area, where we're rewarded with breathtaking panoramic views that make every drop of sweat worth it.
Next, we cool off with a sweet treat at the Sugar Shack, savoring the delicious taste of a maple sugar beaver tail. This Canadian delicacy is the perfect way to recharge our energy for the rest of our journey.
Our culinary exploration continues as we head to Cache Creek for lunch at a local taco stand. We dive into some mouthwatering tacos, enjoying the vibrant flavours that perfectly complement our summer adventure.
To wrap up our day, we take on one last short hike at Alexandra Bridge. The historic site offers a unique blend of natural beauty and engineering marvel, providing a fitting end to our action-packed road trip.
