  A quick and beautiful flight from Golden, B.C. to Revelstoke, B.C. following the Trans-Canada Hwy which took me through Rogers Pass.  Most of the flight I was in about a mile wide valley with the valley floor at about 1600-2000 ASL.  Rogers Pass is a little tighter than that and the Hwy is at about 5000 ASL.  Cheers!

  Thanks guys.  It is Holger Sandmann's mesh and scenery enhancement.  I will post some shots of some of the airports that he enhanced later today but I don't have time right now, sorry.  It is wonderful scenery though.

Hey Ken, I have a wedding to go to in Victoria in a couple weeks....
I know what you are saying about that Pass....many a avalanche delays and complete white outs where we had to stay right at the hotel at the top of the pass... Shocked

Looking forward to it though!
