About an hour's ride north of Terrace on the Nisga'a Highway you will find the Nisga'a Memorial Lava Beds Provincial Park. It is a site that you really have to experience; these lava beds are some of the youngest in the world only 250 years old.
The ride north is filled with amazing beauty and the landscape changes often from following the river, then Lava Lake through the lava beds, mostly with the moutains around you; then you can travel westwards to the coastal community of Gingolx which holds the annual event of Crabfest every year at the beginning of July. Along with feating on some delicious fresh crab and seafood you will be entertained by some world class muscians and very talented local singers & dancers.
Be sure to include this ride on your list of places to see, email me if you would like more information at kermodei@telus.net.
