The Station Wagon: A Very Versatile Vehicle!
Balsam Lake Provincial Park Collection
Date: early 1970s
The versatile nature of station wagons made them synonymous with road trips through the 1950s, 1960s, and 1970s. They could accommodate several passengers with plenty of room to spare for luggage. In this image, a station wagon tows a boat trailer into Balsam Lake Provincial Park a few years after the park officially opened for business.
