From the travel guide. Select a place for details, a map and what is nearby.
A convenient overnight camping spot for travellers on Highway #1, this is also a popular base camp for visitors enjoying river rafting, fishing, and exploring the Thompson River area, open May-Sep. Awe-inspiring views of the Thompson Canyon and quiet strolls on the old Cariboo Wagon Road bring to mind the difficulties encountered by early travellers traversing the western mountain ranges. An introduced herd of elk thrives nearby. Arrangements for guided river rafting trips may be made in Lytton or Spences Bridge.
Skihist Mountain is the highest mountain in the Cantilever Range and in southwestern British Columbia.
It has a collection of over 1600 Chinese artifacts from the BC interior. The museum is rebuilt after the 2021 fire.
