Gold Country:

From Vernon we traveled through Kamloops wanting to spend a couple of days at Juniper Beach Provincial Park near Walhachin but have found out that many of the parks out of the Lower Mainland and Okanagan Valley do not open until May. So we traveled onto Cache Creek for a couple of nights.  From there we took highway 99 through the Marble Canyon Provincial Park to Lillooet.

Two ninety degree sharp turns to negotiate under this railway bridge, with very little room to spare.  The road was narrow but mostly in very good condition.

Wonderful views of the valley with the muddy Fraser River.

Any flat area of land is irrigated to grow grass for hay.
