DESTINATIONS
PRINCE GEORGEThe largest city in Northern British Columbia, Prince George was built around the forest industry, which is still of great importance to the local economy. In fact, be sure to say hi to the city mascot, Mr PG, a towering human-like statue crafted out of logs that stands on the outskirts of town. As Prince George is a stopover town,
you should plan to arrive at the end of the day.
