There are historic old trails all over this country, but are they all brigade trails? If some of them are known to carry the early Nor'westers through the country and down to the Okanagan post, then I think they are. #Journeys #TheHBCBrigades #BCHistory https://nancymargueriteanderson.com/brigade-trail-2/

To trace an old trail on a modern day map, sometimes the best thing to do is visit the place and look at where it would have run, had not a railway been in view. But, remember, new trails follow old, and once you remember that you can find several places where the railway has buried older trails. #TheHBCBrigades #Journeys #BCHistory https://nancymargueriteanderson.com/new-trails-follow-old/
