This isn't to discount Gaspesie or Mont-Tremblant or Thousand Islands, which are all stunners and up there with BC's nature in quality, but more that the sheer breadth and scale isn't matched despite other provinces having great natural options. It may be hyped up, but I'd say it's the one thing about BC that does live up to the hype. This is true whether you're in Vancouver, Princeton, Smithers, or Courtenay. The only part this is not really applicable is the Peace Region, which is a relatively small area of the province.

And how does a prairie type of region like the Peace not have amazing natural beauty? You need to get out more often because the prairies have a beauty that many never take the time to discover or see - natural beauty isn't all about water, mountains and trees.
BTW and on topic, 20 minutes.
