I LOVE people online who think they know more about bchwy 1 in Yoho than I do.

I have lived in Yoho for 11 out of the last 13 summers, I have lived here for 4 consecutive winters where I had to commute to Lake Louise, I am the President of the local Parks union...sit down & shut up

Warm #VanIsle weather keeps the grass growing! Our Summer Student Program kicked off this month. You may see these two dedicated gents on our #BCHwy banks hand brushing. It is critical to keep vegetation under control with our present fire ban & dry weather.

Rumble strips, shallow milled grooves into a #BCHwy shoulder or center. A reminder to drivers since 1996 to steer in the correct direction, reducing severe collisions!
