Train runs its track through Fraser Canyon British Columbia Canada


Train runs its track through Fraser Canyon British Columbia Canada. The wild Fraser Canyon is one of Canada s most impressive gorges Here the raging torrents of the Fraser force their way through a narrow pass between rocky walls towering almost vertically above the river The first things to take the eye are the narrowness and rough hewn walls of the Fraser Canyon The wild gorge below is 150 m 490 ft On average 900 million liters 200 gallons British or 240 gallons American of water per minute shoot through the canyon which is only 34 m 112 ft wide at this point Normally the river here is about 40 m 130 ft deep but when the snow thaws it can rise by more than 20 m 65 ft within a very short time
