Lillooet

Transportation
2
Lillooet was the gateway to gold, where yellow gold lined bars of the Fraser and the lure of the Cariboo drew thousands of miners along the long Harrison trail through the Coast Mountains. From this focal point, the first Cariboo Wagon Road started northward in 1858, and the trail-end at Lillooet became Mile 0 of the new road to riches.
