Some pics from the Kicking Horse Canyon project.

Gives a good sense of why building highways in BC is so expensive and why a true national highway program has been needed for decades...

When done, combined with the Kicking Horse Canyon Bridge this will be the most impressive stretch of rural highway in Canada. Just wish the Feds would get a fu***** move on with the Yoho project...
