Great Canadian Parks – Wells Gray Provincial Park
This is the waterfalls park, one of the most magnificent parks in British Columbia and one of the best representations of a full “mountain-top to valley-bottom” slice of an ecosystem. Mountains run down the center of B.C.’s interior, exhibiting unique lava landforms, dramatic canyons, inspiring peaks and deep lakes. The area is of great public environmental interest because of the concern for logging and other industrial activities in surrounding areas that are affecting the park’s wildlife.

Great Canadian Parks – Cape Breton National Park
One of the most scenic drives in the world is the historic Cabot Trail. Named for explorer John Cabot, the Road was constructed in 1936 around three sides of the newly created national park and today makes Cape Breton Highlands a piece of natural Canada that can be enjoyed by those unable to make the journey on foot. It is a jumping off point for many marine excursions available to observe and research the local whale and seal population as well as the bald eagles that breed on Cape Breton Island. Most of the park interior is “formidable, even inhospitable” wilderness that harbors a number of woodlands.

Great Canadian Parks – Spirit Bear (Princess Royal Island)
The PRINCESS ROYAL Park Proposal encompasses 265,000 hectares of central BC coast, approximately two-thirds on Princess Royal Island and surrounding islands, and the balance around watersheds on the mainland. This is a pristine coastal wilderness, with a rich ecosystem that provides habitat for killer whales, several species of salmon and the renowned white, or “Spirit” bears. The landscape ranges from Pacific Coast, to lush rainforest valleys, to alpine peaks over 5,000 feet high. It is the home of the remarkable KERMODE bear, a population of American Black bears that produces, by a recessive gene, white-haired bears approximately one in ten births. The range of these bears is quite extensive, but this particular region has produced the greatest number of these amazing creatures. Bear Biologist Wayne McCrory has spent many years studying these bears and will be our guide and teacher. This is an intact temperate rainforest with ideal bear habitat, denning sites and a large number of rich salmon streams, providing the bulk of the bears’ diet.

Great Canadian Parks – Forillon National Park, Quebec
Forillon National Park is a place of unparalleled diversity: sea, cliffs, mountains, sand dunes and boreal forest. The influence of the sea is profound here, and the richness of the waters endows the area with abundant marine species, including humpback whales and harbour seals. The inland areas reveal the legacy of the Europeans who farmed here; their abandoned fields are still visible. The lush, interior forest is also the focus of the park’s first black bear research project.

Great Canadian Parks – Ellesmere Island National Park Reserve
Ellesmere Island National Park Reserve is the ultimate wilderness. On the extreme northern tip of the continent, the park encompasses myriad natural wonders, breathtaking landscapes and abundant high Arctic plants and animals. The ocean coastline is deeply incised by glacial valleys and fjords. To the north, unique shelves of sea ice as much as 80 m thick have held fast to the shore for thousands of years. Lake Hazen is the largest lake north of the Arctic Circle, and is a ‘thermal oasis’ in this polar desert. A combination of environmental factors have resulted in vegetation and wildlife being more plentiful here than anywhere else on Ellesmere Island. This austere, arctic landscape provides habitat for Arctic hare, musk oxen, Arctic wolves and endangered Peary caribou.

Pronghorn antelope graze on the open prairies, white-tailed and mule deer cruise along the river and yellow-bellied marmots bask on the sun-warmed sandstone.
