Post by: standalone on October 23, 2015, 09:56:56 AM: please let me know your best place to watch those beautiful autumn leaves. It's better if GPS location.

I really enjoy the fall colors of Squamish Valley. Paradise Road and Squamish Valley road both offer some great views on nice windy paved roads.

I know everyone here loves the real leaf except Mr. Gadsden's.

Post by: Every Day on October 23, 2015, 11:09:15 PM: My travels to the interior with work this year were absolutely stunning. It's so nice in Northern B.C. We really don't get that nice of a showing around here.

The only nice scene I have seen around here was at Top Bridge on the Englishman river last weekend. Was absolutely stunning with the suspension bridge in the backdrop, etc. If you go to the island, you could also make a fishing trip out of it too ;) No shortage of coho out there like the Vedder....
