If you drive about two hours east of Vancouver, British Columbia, you’ll come to a rugged stretch of the Fraser River known as the Fraser Canyon – a region which some historians regard as the birthplace of the province of British Columbia. From the legends of the native Thompson and Tait Indians to one of the most controversial Bigfoot sightings of the 20th Century, this video delves into classic Sasquatch stories from the Fraser Canyon.
