Crowsnest Highway, AB/BC
The Crowsnest Highway is an east-west highway in British Columbia and Alberta, Canada. It stretches 1,161 km (721 mi) across the southern portions of both provinces, from Hope, British Columbia to Medicine Hat, Alberta, providing the shortest highway connection between the Lower Mainland and southeast Alberta through the Canadian Rockies. Mostly two-lane, the highway was officially designated in 1932, mainly following a mid-19th-century gold rush trail originally traced out by an engineer named Edgar Dewdney. It takes its name from the Crowsnest Pass, the location at which the highway crosses the Continental Divide between British Columbia and Alberta.
In British Columbia, the highway is entirely in mountainous regions and is also known as the Southern Trans-Provincial Highway. The western-most segment between the Trans-Canada Highway and Highway 5A is locally known as the Hope-Princeton Highway, and passes by the site of the Hope Slide. In Alberta, the terrain is initially mountainous, before smoothing to foothills and eventually generally flat prairie in the vicinity of Pincher Creek. The highway forms part of the Red Coat Trail and the CANAMEX Corridor from Highway 2 near Fort Macleod to Highway 4 in Lethbridge. Many sections of the highway were built by Japanese labour while they were interned during the Second World War, including sections like the Hope-Princeton. This history has been preserved at a heritage marker at Sunshine Valley, which was the largest internment camp in Canada.

Crowsnest Lake and Ridge by Mark Stevens Via Flickr: A first stop in Alberta along the Crowsnest Hwy. The views of the ridges and mountains...what a sight to take in! In this image, I was drawn into the color contrasts with the blues of the lake and partially overcast skies and the greens and browns of the nearby ridge and mountains.

Mountain Passes and Small Town Experiences
With Cranbrook in the rearview mirror the rain began to drizzle down on the hood of the Tacoma and we flipped on the windshield wipers and the fog lights, too. As the rain continued down highway 95 towards Yahk, we began discussing the last road trip through this same part of the countryside. “When was the last time we came through this valley?” Shauna asked. Starring down the road, my mind…

I’ve read your post about prickly pear and in it, you wrote you found some in the Okanagan region in BC?? Do tell me where because I attend university there! I’d love to see some prickly pears
Oh no, I am sorry – sincerely! – for not immediatelyanswering. I’m jealous that you get to attend school here; I absolutely lovecentral BC. I hope you’re still around to see this; I went to retrieve anotebook with more precise info (dates, temperature) but then failed to findit. But now that summer’s nearing and it’s a good time to go outside, I wantedto give you a couple of locations.
A few summers in a row, I saw prickly-pear near Osoyoos while looking for reptiles. I’m sure you know this already, but I love how the Okanogan Valley and Similkameen Valley act as a sort of far-northern range limit for plant and animal species more typical of the semi-arid Great Basin in the US. The rain shadow caused by the southern Coast Range and northern Cascades helps keep it dry (I’ve heard the Ashcroft area called “Canada’s only desert”). Several reptile species - racer; Great Basin gophersnake; Northern Pacific rattlesnake; desert night snake - rely on this corridor of sagebrush in the Okanogan to enter and inhabit Canada.
Anyway - here are the locations that I know of:
Tumblr media
The Nk’mip Desert & Heritage Center, just east ofOsoyoos, is one location where I’ve seen prickly-pear (2014) and it’s very easyto access. It’s a nice place to take a stroll through some relatively intact sagebrushsteppe-type vegetation above Osoyoos Lake. (I’m not sure if there’s a feecharged nowadays for accessing the trails at the site.) There’s a chance thatstaff at the site might be a little bit picky (or “prickly”) if you wander offthe designated trails. And there’s so much human activity in the area that I don’t know if it’s a reliable place to continue to see prickly-pear.
Another location where you could check, with a little morefreedom to wander, would be the roadside along Crowsnest Highway a few mileswest of Osoyoos towards South Okanogan Grasslands Protected Area. Here, thereare two small pond/lake features – Richter Lake and Spotted Lake. They’resurrounded by pretty sagebrush. There’s not much room to walk around before you run into private land, but still.
The best location I found was along McKinney Road (2014 –2016). This is a road accessible from the town of Oliver, a little north ofOsoyoos. The road rises from sagebrush steppe through low-elevation ponderosawoodland, where I’ve seen the prickly-pear along small exposed rockoutcroppings. There are some private homes and drives along McKinney Road, butI’m pretty sure it’s fine to pull over and check the roadside for plants. (Iwas looking for lizards and snakes.) There are plenty of opportunities to pull over and check different microhabitats.
I also wouldn’t be surprised if the White Lake GrasslandsProtected Area (between Skaha Lake and Vaseux Lake, south of Penticton) hadhealthy prickly-pear, given that its climate and vegetation is similar to the Osoyoos area. But I don’t know anything about public access in that area.
I’m sorry again for the delay in answering. I hope you get to see some cactus. :)

Thursday-Friday-Saturday
November 3-4-5/2022
To avoid a pending -20C winter storm across the Prairies and in the Rocky Mountains, we drove home in three days. We arrived at midnight on Saturday and spent Sunday unpacking and cleaning up.
Along the way, we stopped at the francophone village of Pontiex in Saskatchewan. This was the third small Prairie town that Simon lived in when he was a kid and he was interested in finding the house he had lived in. After more than 50 years, it was very rundown.
We crossed crowsnest pass, with only one skid, and managed to get through before it became clogged with snow. On our last driving day, we bypassed a series of similar passes after Creston by taking a slightly longer route through sun filled valleys and beside windswept lakes, on dry roads past the glass bottle house to reach the Balfour ferry. Once there, we hiked up to an old lighthouse on the nearby ridge and climbed up inside the tower for a great view of the lake and surrounding snowy mountains.
After Nelson, we stopped at the Dukhobor Suspension Bridge outside of Castlegar, where local search and rescue teams were undergoing training exercises from the bridge to the river far below.
After Castlegar, we had an easy passage over Paulson Pass on snow covered roads to reach Christina Lake and Grand Forks. However, we encountered slush, snow, and ice, between Princeton and Hope. this was Allison Pass in Manning Park, that we had visited two months earlier in hot sunshine at high altitude. This time, the road was a mess with two cars upside down and others in the deep snow ditches, several massive tandem trailer trucks stuck or sliding sideways on icy curves, and people driving like crazy for the coast. Simon managed to avoid them all and he says the new car was a joy to drive on ice and in deep unplowed snow.
When we emerged from the mountains at Hope, the storm had caused widespread power failures, so we were unable to take a break from driving. We arrived at Horseshoe Bay in time to catch the last ferry from Vancouver to the Island. Several ferries had been cancelled due to high winds and stormy weather. At home we received a dusting of snow overnight, but the mountains of British Columbia were hard hit and we made the right decision to push through in three days.

Greetings from Alberta’s Energy Transition Corridor, Canada’s unlikely green power hotspot
Tumblr media
A wind turbine at sunset near the Transalta McBride Lake wind farm project near Ardenville, Alberta on October 4, 2022
Along scenic Highway 3, a multibillion-dollar renewables boom is transforming the energy landscape
As Grant Arnold strolled down the long rows of black and silver panels at his company’s solar farm near Burdett, a hamlet along Highway 3 in the south-eastern corner of Alberta, the October conditions could not have been more ideal for generating clean power. The sun beat down on the 72,500 south-facing solar panels, as a pair of miniature donkeys named Starsky and Hutch kept the facility’s groundskeepers – a herd of sheep – in line.
The Burdett Solar Farm is a new 20 megawatt facility developed by BluEarth Renewables Inc.[1], where Mr. Arnold is chief executive officer. Burdett and its sister facility, Yellow Lake, 20 km south, cover 85 hectares of farmland. BluEarth built them amid a massive influx of capital that has flowed into renewable energy along Highway 3.
These investments have made the province that’s long been known as the country’s fossil-fuel centre its green energy hot spot as well. Welcome to Alberta’s Energy Transition Corridor.
The highway cuts across a vast region that is reaping the benefits of famously bright and breezy conditions, a welcoming market for investors and big strides in green technology. Combine the space and the weather with provincial rules that allow power generators to sell directly to users, not just a government utility, and the corridor is uniquely well positioned. “It’s not happening anywhere else,” Mr. Arnold says.
Also called the Crowsnest Highway[2], the road starts at Medicine Hat in the southeast, then extends 324 km through Taber, Lethbridge, Fort Macleod and on past Pincher Creek in the Rocky Mountain foothills. From there it cuts through the Crowsnest Pass and continues west into British Columbia[3].
Along the route, signs of Alberta’s tried-and-true industrial lifeblood are everywhere – farming and ranching, food processing, cargo terminals, and oil and gas production. Day and night, heavy trucks trundle back and forth. Canadian Pacific Railway Ltd.’s tracks parallel the highway across the region’s rolling hills and badlands.
But transformation is also evident. The sunny and gusty southwestern corner of the province has been a hub for clean energy since the 1990s, and development is accelerating, with 17 projects generating 1,032 MW. Wind turbines by the hundreds poke up alongside the highway.
Lately, solar projects have popped up at a brisk pace, too. Many, like Burdett, are east of Lethbridge, developed by a variety of large and small companies. Provincewide, solar generation, at 1,088 MW, is now at the level the Alberta Electricity System Operator (AESO)[4] had forecast last year would not be reached until 2033.
Just five years ago, wind power accounted for 9 per cent of Alberta generation capacity, and solar didn’t even register, according to AESO. Today, the two sources make up 22 per cent. Solar alone is now 6 per cent of the total, and about to take its next leap when Canada’s largest solar project, Greengate Power Corp.[5]’s $700-million Travers development, starts up.
There’s also a nascent renewable natural gas (RNG) industry along Highway 3, in which the fuel is generated from agricultural and municipal waste, and plans for increased storage and other technology to level off the variable power supplies from wind and solar.
The former NDP[6] government kick-started development in 2016 with auctions in which wind developers bid on projects – those offering the least expensive power to the grid won. The arrangements have netted the Alberta government $160-million, according to new research by the University of Calgary School of Public Policy[7], and primed the pump for today’s investment rush.
“The number one driver of renewables in Alberta is private investment,” says Nagwan Al-Guneid, director of Business Renewables Centre-Canada (BRC)[8], a non-profit that provides education and networking services for developers, investors and electricity buyers. “These are private corporations, public institutions, looking to procure renewables through power purchase agreements in Alberta. They have serious ESG [environmental, social and governance] commitments.”
When BRC was established as an initiative of the Pembina Institute[9] three years ago, it set a daunting target of reaching 2 gigawatts of renewable energy contracted by 2025. Alberta has already surpassed that, after $3.75-billion in spending on new generation. All that activity, the organisation says, has created 4,500 jobs. Five deals have been signed this year, adding 333 MW of solar and wind power. More is on tap.
Green power is proliferating in other parts of the province as well. But Highway 3, already long established, can move workers and materials to and from projects quickly as they are constructed.
Most importantly, there’s “the resource” – sunshine and wind. Southern Alberta has both in spades. Lethbridge[10], for instance, averages 330 sunny days per year, or over 90 per cent of daytime hours. The region, known for its balmy Chinook winds that race across the Rockies, is also one of the breeziest in Canada, second only to St. John’s[11], according to Environment Canada. Lethbridge gets more windy days than any other city in the country.
The development has jolted local economies, which suffered with the downturn in oil and gas that began in 2014. Medicine Hat[12], known historically as The Gas City, has embraced renewables. Across southeastern Alberta, hotels are booked, restaurants are busy and the real estate market is strong, says Jon Sookocheff, economic development consultant with the city government.
Besides construction jobs, the industry is providing related opportunities, such as maintenance, warehousing and distribution. Colleges in the region are training the next generation of renewable energy technicians. “I think it’s one of the bigger development stories in Alberta and in Canada, and it’s maybe a bit of a secret right now. But it certainly takes a lot of work to put these production facilities into play,” Mr. Sookocheff says.
“All of a sudden there’s a renewables boom” for communities along Highway 3”, says Blake Shaffer, an assistant professor of economics at the University of Calgary, and a former electricity trader. “And they opened the doors to it.”
