19 Abandoned Places In Canada That Are Both Terrifying And Beautiful

#3 In Dorothy, Alberta, there’s a squeaky grain elevator

#4 The wreckage of a DC-3 in Crowsnest Pass, Alberta

In poor weather in 1946, an RCAF DC-3 Dakota collided with a mountain and crashed at the headwaters of North York Creek, killing all seven people on board. A relatively arduous climb of 6.2 kilometers each way is still possible to observe remnants of the plane disaster. Please do not disturb any of the plane debris if you visit.

Take York Creek Road south from Coleman and park near the York Creek Bridge after about 4 kilometers. Cross the bridge and follow the path that climbs up York Creek’s south bank. Hikers take the right branch over York Creek and up the North York Creek drainage where the trail divides. You can proceed to the delightful meadows below Mt. Coulthard after passing the plane wreckage.

#8 This abandoned wharf in British Columbia’s Bella Coola Valley

At the Bella Coola port, another abandoned ship has sunk.

The “Sundowner,”which was supposedly owned by a Quesnel resident, is now nearly completely underwater. Environment Canada officials were on the scene, attempting to secure the vessel in preparation for the gasoline to be pumped out.

At this moment, it is uncertain how much fuel, if any, has fled the vessel in its present position.

An onlooker at the port said he saw a hole in the wooden vessel’s side that had been there “for quite some time.” Although the reason for the sinking is unknown, many acquainted with the port described the boat as”abandoned.”

The issue of abandoned and derelict vessels off the coast of British Columbia is complicated. They represent a threat to the environment and public safety, and removing them is difficult due to the tangle of jurisdictions that surrounds them.
