THE HAUTE ROUTE 4 distinct trips packed into one exceptional afternoon excursion, including unused forest trails, open vistas of Mountains, unique gentle descents and fantastic creekside skiing. HOSPITAL LAKES CIRCUIT Glide over unused abandoned gold mines, and remote natural meadows. Gentle descents lead to a ruined historic Milk Ranch, and a cruise across frozen lakes. WENDLE TRAVERSE An ambitious circle through the corner of Bowron Lake Park, includes lake travel, meadows, abundant animal sign, mountain views, and the opportunity to be towed by a kite! WILLIAM'S CREEK EXPLORATION Ski or snowshoe up through Barkerville, on a trip with a hundred variations, including park-like forests, mountain views, frozen mine tunnels, beautiful creek crossings. From as little as a hour to as long as the day, this trip can lead all the way to the headwaters of Williams creek. BILL BROWN'S TRAVERSE The last, undeveloped section of the Cariboo Waggon Road stretches 23 km from Stanley to Barkerville. Legendary giant Bill Brown walked the road daily to hand shovel Devil's Canyon and keep the roads open in the winter. Today, this sub-alpine route, riddled with remnants of various gold rushes, is accessible only by ski and seldom visited. |
