Jasper On Track

Aboard the Rocky Mountaineer, Fiona Tapp witnesses the rebirth of Jasper, Alberta as the historic mountain town rises from wildfires with resilience, renewal—and unforgettable rail views.

It began with three afternoon lightning strikes during a rainless storm in July 2024, resulting in raging fires out of control. By 10 p.m. that night, the evacuation of over 20,000 people had begun. Kevin Lazzari, a tour guide with SunDog Tours, a local company focusing on wildlife watching and glacier adventure trips, says it was the biggest fire in Jasper in 100 years, and the first time in his life that a mandatory evacuation order was issued. “It was chaotic,” he says. “We only had one choice; we went west.” Townsfolk were displaced for weeks...

How to plan for (and maybe even avoid) everything that could go wrong on a family road trip

My childhood holidays revolved around the car. My family would pile into our silver Toyota Corolla and drive from East London to the British seaside. We’d stay in a caravan park, similar to Canadian campgrounds and a traditional, budget-friendly British holiday staple, where we’d eat fish and chips wrapped in newspaper, and brave the icy waters of the North Sea for a dip. Before moving here, I thought those short seaside trips were road trips.
