Canada's hot spot ?


Canada's hot spot ?, originally uploaded by Judy B.


High Summer heat is typical in this historic, scenic town on the Fraser River , about 240 km/150 miles up the BC rail from Vancouver. Situated at an intersection of deep gorges in the lea of the Coast Mountains. It enjoys extremely hot summers often breaking 40°C and vies with nearby Lytton for the title of "Canada's Hot Spot".

(A local expert says Lytton gets credit for being Canada's hotspot only because there’s a Dept. of Environment weather station there. Folks in Ashcroft hear the Lytton reports on the radio, and universally opine that it’s always 1 or 2 degrees warmer in Ashcroft.)
