The origin of its name is somewhat vague, but one thing is for certain, the community
of Hope has all the amenities and attractions one could hope for. Located 154
km (96 miles) east of Vancouver
in the Fraser Valley, Hope
is situated at either the beginning or the end of the Coquihalla
Highway, depending on which direction travellers are driving. The community's
historic sites are of particular interest to travellers, including the Othello-Quintette
Tunnels. Built between 1911 and 1918, the tunnels offer fantastic views of
the natural surroundings. The largest rockslide in B.C.'s history, the Hope
Slide occurred in January of 1965, and is a fascinating site to visit. Hell's
Gate Airtram, one of Hope's largest attractions, suspends visitors over Hell's
Gate - a gorge that in its peak time of spring surges over 200 million gallon
of water through its 35 metre (110 ft.) wide opening. From this height, visitors
can also gain a prime view of the entire area.
