Prince Rupert

Prince Rupert is on the coast of Northern British Columbia. Cruise ships on the way to Alaska often stop here but is also home to many hard working people involved in the forestry, fishing, and tourism trades.

The Museum of Northern British Columbia is small but has many wonderful items of First Nations history.

This Tsimshian mortuary sculpture, in the form of a bear, is the only known surviving example of this art form.

The Sunken Gardens, by Lloyd Ernest Bud Pierce, is a lovely reclaimed area in Prince Rupert.
