Canada: The Great North American Circle

Get a fascinating history lesson at the site of the Battle of the Châteauguay, which marks the only time in history Canada and the United States have engaged in active combat against each other. Visit more than a dozen of Canada’s National Parks, including the world-famous Banff, Jasper, and Yoho. Hike waterfalls, photograph the stunning turquoise glacial lakes, and ascend to the top of the Canadian Rockies. You’ll also drive the breathtaking Icefields Parkway, which is the most scenic road in the world. Cap off your journey west with a run down Canada’s infamous Highway Through Hell, the Coquihalla.

After crossing into the United States for your eastbound return leg, tour even more National Parks such as Redwoods, Rocky Mountain, and Badlands. After rekindling some old storm chasing passions on the plains of Tornado Alley, Matt tries to visit the remaining 5 states in the Lower 48 he has yet to step foot in.
