Othello Tunnels



These are the Othello Tunnels also known as Quintette Tunnels as there is actually five of these tunnels. However the Tunnel #3 almost appears to be one long tunnel, but there is a small opening about half way along. These tunnels were designed by Andrew McCulloch to save going around the Coquihalla Canyon. The railbed crosses the Coquihalla River several times and the views are well worth the trip. The trestles have all been converted to walkways now, and it is a provincial park. It is located about 5km outside of Hope.

















Ahhh! A giant slug!


...and now for my close-up!
