The trees in that campground are just so big and beautiful.
i have a cabin up in Cadomin, fishing is amazing there. Your right to a lot of people use Cadomin as a vacation place. 40 permanent residents in cadomin.
I love how peaceful Cadomin is! We use to visit the cave there.
I finally made it into Cadomin last September. I came in from the Edson side on Hwy 47. It was the highlight of my trip as I've wanted to go back into that country for many years now. Never made it up to Mountain Park as I was pressed for time but it sure looks like I need to get back in there soon. The lookout at the Cardinal Pass sure looks impressive from Google Earth so I need to put that on the list too.
That prep plant looks a lot like the place where I work here in West Virginia, lot of old abandoned camps and towns here as well. Nice video, cool old concrete portal on the side of the road. Always a tell tell sign they invested some money into their mine.
the houses in Cadomin used to be miners cabins. my dad grew up in Luscar. if you grew up in the area you can have your ashes buried in the cemetery @ Mountain Park
Looks like a Freson lunch.
Ben, I am not sure about your statement that the town was created in the 1800's, my guess is you meant early 1900's. There is a book called "Oh the Coal Branch" with much of the history in the early days basically starting after World War 1. Thanks for sharing your trip!
