Fort St. John, Attractions

Whenever I drive north on the Alaska Highway, I always look
forward to seeing the giant lumberjack about 30km north of Fort St. John on the
south side of the highway. It has been that way since I was a child. I used to
beg my parents to stop so that I could jump out of the car, walk up to him and
just see how large he was, and just how small I was. His yellow hat, red shirt,
blue jean coloured pants, his silly grin are pretty much legendary to people
who drive up the highway. Many people love to stop and take pictures with this big
friendly giant.
