Jackass Mountain


JACKASS MOUNTAIN, FRASER CANYON
Trans-Canada Highway — British Columbia
Scenic beyond compare, the Trans-Canada Highway at Jackass Mountain contains one the many interesting stories of B.C.'s gold rush days.

Jackass Mountain--a memorial to a mule. wearied by its struggle over the steep, twisting Cariboo Road, one loaded mule reared, bucked, and fell to its death in the canyon. The long stream of freight animals closed their ranks and plodded onward to the distant Cariboo goldfields.

Dodge 1971 Coronet


DODGE CORONET CUSTOM 4-DOOR SEDAN —The Custom is just one of the members of the Coronet family of four-door sedans. 1971 Coronet — the car that was built from the ground up as a four-door sedan. The Coronet Custom is a little nicer, a little richer . . . with simulated wood-grained instrument panel and door trim, color-keyed carpeting and color-keyed steering wheel. And yet the Coronet Custom carries a low price tag.
