John Hands, Mural Routes photographic ambassador, completed his cross-country trip, recording and documenting hundreds of outdoor murals in the process.

John began his trip in mid-May from the town of Chatsworth in southern Ontario. He travelled along the Trans Canada Highway, through Manitoba, Saskatchewan, and Alberta, arriving in British Columbia in mid-June. John discovered numerous mural towns on Vancouver Island, and visited the town of Chemainus, whose mural program was the inspiration for many communities across Canada. After taking the ferry from Vancouver Island to Prince Rupert, British Columbia, John travelled north, up the Dempster Highway to the Yukon, and then further north to Inuvik, in the Northwest Territories. John's return route took him through the mid section of the Prairie Provinces, where he visited a number of well-known mural towns such as Stony Plain, Alberta and Moosejaw, Saskatchewan. He arrived back in Ontario in July, having successfully documented the outdoor murals in approximately 50 towns across Canada.
