This separately issued tourist map details the Canadian railway and steamship routes in the Pacific Northwest. It focuses on the southern portion of British Columbia and offers a "triangle tour" between Jasper National Park, Mount Robson Park, and the North Pacific Coast. It shows the railroad routes in bold red lines with stops marked by small circles, and the steamship routes along the coastlines are dashed red lines. There are photographic images of the two parks and a train bridge at top, and insets at left list the heights of various mountain peaks in the area. An inset at bottom right shows the steamship route extending to Seattle, Washington. Published by Canadian National Railway Company. Blank verso.
