So the outlook has brightened considerably for the Yellowhead Pass brigade which has carried on a spirited campaign from its headquarters at Edmonton. "Trends of traffic and commercial development seem to favor a route by way of Edmonton," Vancouver journalist Roy Brown observed recently. 'B.C.'s oil pipeline and the prospective line to carry 4"as to the coast are routed through Yellowhead for reasons of topography which are pretty obvious (the route is at least 2,000 feet lower than the others)." - Mr. Brown could have added that a main lateral road into central B.C. would go far towards taking the bulk of the province out of the wilderness. Although there is no assurance that a Trans-Canada highway through the Yellow head . .Pass would improve communications between. Edmonton, Prince George and Prince Rupert, it is likely at-least to excite more interest in the idea. Motorists from other provinces who are obliged to turn sharply south towards Vancouver might begin to wonder why, no matter how far north they :ire, all roads lead in the same old direction.
