Whether your visit to Hope is an hour, a weekend or a lifetime I am sure you will enjoy what our beautiful community has to offer. Although the Hope has changed a great deal over the years with development and residents moving in, the beautiful mosaic of our friendly and compassionate community has not. As Mayor I would say that beauty here is more than skin deep and the true beauty of our community is the people in it.

If you are visiting Hope for the first time you will notice that the scenery of our community is breathtaking. The mountains and the rivers, the seemingly unending forests and outdoor recreational opportunities will leave you in awe I am sure.

Although your tastes may be very specific I might suggest a visit to the world famous Othello Tunnels, a hike on our countless trails, or a tour of dozens of spectacular wood carvings. My father who has since passed on and had traveled extensively, said many times that Hope is the most beautiful place he had ever seen and many others, including myself tend to agree.

I wish to caution everyone that the Hope and area experience is a very addictive one. Many before us have come for a day and stayed a lifetime. If you would like more information on our area, are thinking of moving here or would like to explore the many business opportunities waiting for you, please do not hesitate to call me directly at 604-860-5444.

HOPE to see you soon!

A BRIEF HISTORY OF HOPE In 2018, Hope celebrates 170 years since the Hudson’s Bay Company established a fort adjacent to the Stó:lō village of Ts’qo:ls.

Stó:lō are part of the Halq’eméylem language group and speak an Upriver dialect. In turn, Halq’eméylem is part of the Coast Salish family of languages. “Stó:lō” is the Halq’eméylem word for “river,” thus Stó:lō are “the river people.” The river with which the Stó:lō share their name was renamed the Fraser River after Simon Fraser’s successful journey in 1808.

The northern section of the Fraser Canyon (around Hell’s Gate and Boston Bar) is traditional Nlaka’pamux territory. Nlaka’pamux are part of the Nłeōkepmxcin language group.

When the Hudson’s Bay Company needed to find a route inland that bypassed the Fraser Canyon, Stó:lō, Nlaka’pamux, and Similkameen guides helped to establish what is now the 74 km HBC (1849) Heritage Trail over the Cascade Mountains. As this area represented the “best hope” for finding such a route, the Hudson’s Bay Company established Fort Hope at the proposed trailhead in 1848.

In the years following the fur trade and the 1858 Fraser River Gold Rush, mining continued to support Hope and its residents. At the close of the 19th century, logging was rising to prominence and would continue to be our primary industry for the better part of the 20th century.

As has always been the way of the people who live at natural junctions, we continue to welcome visitors to our community and share in the abundance we get to call our own.

Celebrating its 50th anniversary in 2018, Brigade Days is one of the most popular weekends of the year. Although it’s the symbolic end of summer, visitors flock to town for a weekend packed with activities.

As Hope has changed over the last 50 years, so too have the list of events at Brigade Days. Where once logger sports dominated the weekend, now the Boondock Bike Jam, the Caesar Soares 2 Pitch Softball Tournament and the Hope Hustle are some of the biggest draws. However, some of the most classic events (like the parade and the motorsports) just keep growing!

We think Brigade Days 2018 will be one of the best, but don’t take our word for it: come check out the fun for yourself.

Events include: • Demolition derby • 4x4 races • Stock car races • Parade • Outdoor concerts • Ken James Ripoff Saloon (beer garden) • Boondock Bike Jam • Caesar Soares 2 Pitch Softball Tournament • The Hope Hustle • The Brigade Trail Race • Food trucks • Logger sports Brigade Days takes place the weekend after Labour Day (Sept. 7-9, 2018).

CHRIST CHURCH Christ Church National Historic Site has housed a congregation since its consecration in 1861. This makes it the longest operating church on mainland British Columbia.

The Anglican parish was established in Hope in 1859 by the Rev. Alexander Pringle. When construction of the church began in 1861, it was designed by the Royal Engineers to create a stronger British presence in Fort Hope. The Fraser River Gold Rush had brought an influx of American gold seekers to the community and British colonists were eager to establish supremacy.

With its dark wood interior and leaded glass windows, Christ Church is an excellent example of an Anglican parish church in the Gothic Revival style.

Interpretive signage on the exterior allows visitors to explore the building’s history during the off-season. Guided tours are available during the summer months. The

“Learn some history through the soles of your feet” -Harley Hatfield.

In 2016, the 74km HBC (1849) Heritage trail joined the ranks of the West Coast Trail, Juan de Fuca and Stein Valley as epic, multi-day, bucket-list hikes in British Columbia.

The trail was the Hudson Bay Company’s first overland route connecting B.C.’s coast and interior. Prior to HBC use, First Nations had been traversing the Tulameen Plateau for centuries.

The HBC Trail crosses rugged wilderness and hikers should have previous experience with mountain travel. Some trail-specific information to keep in mind: • Very few bridges exist on the trail, so be prepared to wade across streams and rivers • July to September is the best time to hike the trail • Water purification system (tablets and/or pump) is recommended The HBC Trail can be hiked over several days or in a series of day trips. Access points: Peers Creek, Sowaqua Creek, and Jacobson Lake.

Camps have bear caches, pit toilets and water sources.

Trail distances (travelling east: Hope to Tulameen): Peers Creek to Manson’s Camp: 6km Manson’s Camp to Manson’s Ridge: 2km Manson’s Ridge to Sowaqua Creek Camp: 10.5km Sowaqua Creek to Deer Camp: 4km Deer Camp to Conglomerate Flats Camp: 3km Conglomerate Flats to Jacobson Lake: 2.5km Jacobson Lake to Horseguard Camp: 11km Horseguard Camp to Whatcom Trail Junction: 9km Whatcom Trail to Lodestone Lake: 8km Lodestone Lake to Otter Lake: 19km Brigade Trail Race For those trail runners looking for a new challenge, check out the Brigade Trail Race on Sept. 8, 2018. This race, now in its second year, coincides with Hope Brigade Days. Racers will receive a wristband for Brigade Days that gives access to all events.

It’s fun to do on rainy days too, when the extra water makes the waterfall even more spectacular. On the coldest winter days you might even see the frozen falls.

The Hope Mountain Black Bear Committee is a local volunteer organization that works to keep our bears wild. Remember that a fed bear is a dead bear, so keep your campsites free of garbage and pack out whatever you packed in.

To avoid bear encounters: Hike in groups Make noise on the trail Keep dogs on leash

Intermediate Hope Lookout Round Trip Distance: 4km Time: 3 hours Mount Hope Lookout (or ‘The Hope Hustle’) is Hope’s answer to the Grouse Grind in North Vancouver. The trail offers spectacular views of Hope from two viewpoints and ends at the highest viewpoint, which includes benches and interpretive signs.

MOUNTAIN BIKING

Photo by Robyn Barker

The mountains around Hope are on track to be the next great mountain bike destination in the years to come.

There is a nice mix of trails for families, beginners and those looking for more challenging terrain. Note that all routes are multi-user.

LIGHT TRAILS Kettle Valley Railway: Hope-Othello Distance: 10km (roundtrip) Beginner This portion of the Kettle Valley Railway offers beginner trail riders an easy introduction to the KVR. This abandoned railway bed is now used for biking and hiking.

Rotary Nature Trails Distance: 2km (roundtrip) Beginner With a few more twists and turns than the Kettle Valley Railway, the Rotary Nature Trails is a fun place to ride with kids and anyone who is new to trail riding. The trail follows the Coquihalla River and also connects to the Town Bike Route.

DOWNHILL AND CROSS-COUNTRY TRAILS Mt. Hope Lookout Distance: 3km (roundtrip) Advanced The mountain bike trails on Mt. Hope start just below the hikers’

trail-head and, at points, crosses the hiking trail. The advanced trail has some man-made features and follows the Joan Greenwood Loop.

HBC (1848) Heritage Trail Distance: 12km (roundtrip) Intermediate The HBC Trail from Peers Creek is open for mountain biking to Manson’s Camp (the first campground). The trail is mostly doubletrack. There is a short section of rock-slide near the beginning of the trail that riders may have to hike past.

Poland Lake Distance: 16km (roundtrip) Advanced Start at Strawberry Flats and climb past the ski hill to a beautiful alpine lake (with camping for those looking for an overnight adventure). This trail is not technical and offers riders incredible views of the Hozameens.

BMX Hope Skateboard Park Located behind the Hope Recreation Centre (1005 6th Avenue), the popular skateboard park is adjacent to the Hope Bike Park. An expansion is being planned for the park, so veteran riders will have new features in the coming years.

ROAD RIDING Given its location at the edge of the mountains, Hope is ideally situated for road rides of any length.

In 2018, The Ride to Conquer Cancer will end its 200km ride in Hope. Each year, this ride draws thousands of riders and spectators. The rides below will get Ride to Conquer Cancer participants ready for the journey. And will get everyone else inspired to participate in 2019!

BEGINNER Town Bike Route Distance: 7km Brand new to riding? Introducing your kids to the sport? Feel like checking out town?

Then the Town Bike Route is for you. This marked route around town leads riders of any skill level past Memorial Park, Christ Church, the confluence of the Fraser and Coquihalla rivers and the Recreation Centre.

INTERMEDIATE The Airport Distance: 20km (roundtrip) The ride around the airport is a classic road ride in Hope. Cyclists can either leave from downtown for a longer ride that includes Richmond Hill (Flood-Hope Road) or can drive to the airport and cruise the beginner three kilometre loop with no hills or traffic.

ADVANCED The Hope Slide Distance: 35km (roundtrip) Long distance riders in Hope will argue that once you have ridden to the Hope Slide Viewpoint three times then you are ready to tackle anything the province has to offer. The climb starts as soon as you leave town with a section of six percent along the Coquihalla Connector. The shoulder on this route is fairly luxurious and riders barely have to pedal to make it home.

AERIAL VIEW Whether from land or sky, the views around Hope are unbeatable.

Hope offers some of the best conditions for gliding in the province. When westerly winds from the Fraser Valley hit the local mountains they create strong upward columns of air that can keep gliders in flight for hours.

From April to October, visitors can catch a glimpse of the gliders soaring by the mountains over town. The Vancouver Soaring Association – based out of the Fraser Valley Regional District’s Airpark in Hope – offers introductory flights and training courses. Check them out at vancouversoaring.com.

For visitors who prefer an engine,Valley Helicopters offers incredible tours. Tours include: • Fly-by mountain tour for a chance to see mountain goats on Mount Ogilvie • Heli-fishing in a pristine backcountry lake • Drop-off tour to the summit of Mount Hope for an hour of solitude • Wedding photos in the most incredible settings Photo by AdvantageHOPE

FILMING BACKDROP

Photo by Hope Museum Archives

Thirty-five years ago (1981) Sylvester Stallone and his film crew took over Hope to film Rambo: First Blood and introduced Hollywood to British Columbia. Every year, thousands of people visit Hope to see their favourite filming locations.

Since then, more than 15 feature films (including Shoot to Kill, Hope Springs, The Stickup, Far from Home: The Adventures of MAJESTIC MOUNTAINS

Yellow Dog, and War for the Planet of the Apes) have been filmed in the area. Most recently, Sweet Virginia (2016) and Winter’s Dream (2017) turned Hope into Hollywood North.

Our diverse history has also made Hope a popular location for documentary filming.

In 2009, local filmmaker Eva Wunderman chronicled the 1858 conflict between First

Nations and European gold seekers in Canyon War. Our rugged terrain is perhaps best highlighted in the Discovery Channel show Highway Thru Hell. The series follows Jamie Davis’ crew as they work to keep local highways open during unpredictable winter weather.

RAMBO SITE TOUR Released in 1982, First Blood has become a cult classic. Thousands of people visit Hope each year to tour the filming locations. The map on the next page highlights some of the most iconic filming locations. Below is a description of the scenes.

1. Sheriff Teasle picks up Rambo on Water Avenue, near Gardner GM. 2. Trying to escape police, Rambo – on a stolen motorcycle – jumps the train tracks at Third Avenue.

3. With the police in hot pursuit, Rambo rides along Hudson Bay Street, passing the H-tree at the corner of Fifth Avenue and Hudson Bay Street.

Street and Third Avenue. It was built specifically to be destroyed during filming.

4. The sheriff ’s station is located in front of District Hall, at the corner of Wallace Street and Third Avenue. It has since been moved (see #8).

8. The new location of the Sheriff ’s Station. Pieces of the Sheriff Station serve as the Canyon Golden Age Society’s clubhouse at 560 Douglas St.

5. The current location of Treehouse Health Foods was transformed into Mountain State Savings.

Across Third Avenue from the bank, a Coke billboard was placed on the building’s roof to provide cover for the cameras.

9. The intersection near Exit 170 (Highway 1) is where Rambo walked under Hope’s original ‘Welcome to Hope: Gateway to Holidayland” archway. Remnants of the archway can be seen at Hope Station House.

6. Rambo rides his stolen motorcycle along the sidewalk on the north side of Wallace Street (between Third and Fraser avenues).

10. Location of the gas station that Rambo blew up as a diversion.

The station was built specifically to be destroyed.

7. The Outpost gun shop was built at the intersection of Commission

of the movie. The original bridge was taken down in 2011.

12. Othello Tunnels – known in the movie as ‘Chapman’s Gorge’ – is where Rambo hangs precariously on the rock wall (between tunnels one and two) and the police officer falls out of the helicopter. *Note: the Othello Tunnels are open from the May Long Weekend until the end of October.* 13. When evading capture on the stolen motorcycle, Rambo passes through the Chevron parking lot.

The distinctive roofline of what is now Hope Pizza Place can be seen in the background of the scene.

14. In the movie, Station House was still at the corner of Hudson Bay Street and Fifth Avenue (see #3).

The building was moved in 1985.

SUNSHINE VALLEY AND THE HOPE SLIDE

Open Saturdays 10am – 4pm and by appointment Monday-Friday 14781 Alpine Boulevard, Sunshine Valley 604-869-7070

Photo by AdvantageHOPE

Sunshine Valley is a pleasant mountain community with hundreds of kilometres of snowshoe, ATV, snowmobile, hiking and biking trails that wind their way through the forests of the Sumallo and Nicolum River valleys. Its shallow lake offers paddling in the summer and skating in the winter.

From its roots as a traditional First Nations hunting and berry picking area, Sunshine Valley has a history worth exploring.

In 1942, the Canadian government created a coastal exclusion zone and JapaneseCanadians living within that zone were interned in camps across the country.

Between 1942 and 1946, approximately

or Open F

& h c n Lu r!

Dinne

2,600 people were interned at Sunshine Valley, then called Tashme. The name Tashme is derived from the last names of the men responsible for the camp: Taylor, Shirras and Mead.

After the war, a significant number of internees stayed in the area and have built a vibrant Japanese-Canadian community in Hope.

Sunshine Valley is also home to one of the largest recorded landslides in Canadian history, the Hope Slide. On Jan. 9, 1965 Highway 3 was abruptly closed when weak layers of rock covered with heavy snow on the face of Johnson Peak gave way.

Book us for your Birthday Party or meeting.

Our dining room seats up to 60!

Call for seasonal hours

821 6th Ave. Unit B 604-869-9898

The force of the slide was such that the debris travelled 60 metres up Mt. Coulter (on the opposite side of the valley), obliterated Beaver (Outram Lake) from the topography of the valley and triggered seismographic readings at a monitoring station in Penticton. The slide area was 85 metres deep and three kilometres wide.

Four people were killed in the slide.

Visitors travelling along Highway 3 are driving 55 metres above the original highway surface.

At the Hope Slide viewpoint, visitors can see the scars that were left on Johnson Peak by the slide.

COQUIHALLA SUMMIT RECREATION AREA

Coquihalla Summit Recreation Area is one of Hope’s best kept secrets. It is a haven for ski-touring and sledding in the winter and hiking in the summer.

From an easy hike to Falls Lake to an advanced rock-climb up Yak Peak, Coquihalla Summit has something for all outdoor enthusiasts.

History buffs and cycling enthusiasts can ride the old Kettle Valley Railway from the summit to Portia exit (more information can be found in Trails of Hope). Hikers and climbers will find almost no end to granite peaks and backcountry tarns to explore.

One of the most popular year-round hikes in the area is Needle Peak. The trailhead is on the south side of the highway at Exit 217 (Zopkios). The trail passes over glacier-polished granite and offers glorious views of the North Cascades and Coast Mountains.

There is no question when the salmon run opens in Hope, fishers from all over the Lower Mainland converge on the region when the sockeye, spring, and pink are running. Public access points on the Fraser River include: • Wardle Street • Rupert Street • The north end of the Fraser Bridge • F.H. Barber Provincial Park – located off Highway 1 west of Hope at exit 153 (Laidlaw/Jones Lake) Fraser River sturgeon fishing is a once-in-a-lifetime opportunity.

Book a guided trip on the Fraser between April and October to have a chance to battle the largest freshwater fish in the world.

For those looking for something smaller, check out the following lakes, rivers, and streams: • Kawkawa Lake – one of the most unique fisheries in the Upper Fraser Valley • Lake of the Woods • Jones, Ross and Silver Lakes • Skagit River – considered by some to be the best dry fly stream in the province • Silver Creek • Coquihalla River

SPAWNING SALMON Salmon spend their early life in rivers and streams before migrating to the Pacific Ocean. Adult salmon later return to the same area where they hatched, guided largely by smell, to spawn and die. Seeing thousands of fish fight their way up-river is a truly incredible experience.

Though the exact dates vary considerably, the major salmon run typically starts in Hope in October.

Late September: Chum Late October: Coho June, July and August: Steelhead October: Kokanee Interpretive signs at Thacker Regional Park (Sucker’s Creek) explore the unique challenges facing salmon in our rivers and streams.

The first bridge in Coquihalla Canyon Provincial Park is the best place to see the summer steelhead run.

The streams on the east side of Kawkawa Lake are the best place to see the kokanee show off their fall colours.

August 10-12, 2018 The Fat Dog 120 Trail Race through Skagit Valley and Manning Park is considered the most scenic ultra race in Canada. Racers gain 8673 metres in elevation, which is only 175.3 metres less than Everest!

Photo by AdvantageHOPE

Skagit Valley Provincial Park was born when Seattle City Lights attempted to raise the Ross Dam and flood the Skagit Valley. A herculean international effort followed as loggers (led by Curly Chittenden), environmentalists and outdoor enthusiasts opposed the project and lobbied government to preserve this pristine region of British Columbia. For more information on the history of the park, check out the Gateway to the Skagit (Silver Skagit Road).

Silver Lake Provincial Park and Ross Lake are the most popular recreational areas in the Skagit Valley. Ross Lake is a reservoir and water levels fluctuate throughout the year, but it is typically at full pool by July 1. At

low-water, there is no water on the Canadian side. Visitors to Ross Lake should remember their passports, as Ross Lake straddles the Canada/USA border.

In the spirit of the park’s inception, Friends of the Skagit was created in 2014 to educate visitors on the impact visitors can have on the park. They support a long-standing garbage removal initiative by handing out garbage bags to users on weekends.

Garbage cans throughout the Skagit Valley are emptied by a single volunteer. Please help him by packing out what you pack in.

Skagit Valley is one of the most popular camping destinations in the area. Four

campgrounds (Silver Lake, Silver Tip, Whitworth Horse Camp, and Ross Lake) offer basic amenities (well-water only and no hook-ups). Whitworth Horse Camp also offers corrals and hitching rails.

In addition to camping, the park boasts amazing swimming, paddling, hiking and wildlife viewing.

Visitors looking for a multi-day hike or epic trail run should check out the Skyline II and Skagit River trails.

Note: there are no gas stations, ATMs or flush toilets in the Skagit Valley.

WHITEWATER RAFTING & PADDLING The story of British Columbia cannot be told without the story of its rivers.

And the story of your trip should not be told without the story of a river. Hope, Cascades & Canyons has some of the best rafting and paddling in the province.

For white-water kayakers with experience and their own gear, adventure awaits on the Coquihalla River, Skagit River and Silver Creek.

Depending on snow pack and river levels, commercial rafting in the area typically starts in early June on the Coquihalla and Nahatlatch rivers. Like the season in which they are run, these rivers are fast and fun. Rafting on the Coquihalla and the Nahatlatch typically ends July 1.

A paddle or power trip down the Thompson River is the adventure you

have been waiting for. Hot sun, pristine swimming holes and roller-coaster-sized waves characterize a day-trip on the Thompson.

For those wanting a chance to paddle through history, power trips down the mighty Fraser River run all summer. The Fraser is a Canadian Heritage River and one of the longest in Canada (1375km).

fraserraft.com

The best time to run the Fraser is late July to early September.

Year-round rafting is offered on the Chilliwack River.

Family-run rafting companies with experienced guides are here to help visitors of all skill and comfort levels find a suitable trip.

EMORY CREEK Explore the history of the most profitable community of the 1858 Fraser River Gold Rush and camp along the banks of the river where 25,000 men bound for the gold fields passed through in 1858-1859.

Pre-1858: Emory Creek was integral to the families who made their living hunting, fishing, mining and trading.

1858: Edward Hill’s prospecting party finds considerable gold at Hemhemetheqw (later renamed Hill’s Bar) and the Fraser River Gold Rush starts in earnest. Five hundred men wintered at Emory Creek that year.

1879: Canadian Pacific Railway (CPR) chooses Emory City as its western terminus. The city grows to 13 streets, 32 blocks, and 4,000 homes and businesses.

1880: The Inland Sentinel is established in Emory City as the first newspaper on the mainland. Emory City sawmill produced 21,000 feet of timber in a 24-hour shift.

1881: CPR abandons Emory City in favour of Yale (5km north).

1890: Little trace of the once bustling city remains.

1930: Dominion Provincial Mining Training Project establishes a camp at Emory Creek to train unemployed men in mining methods.

2018: The remains of Emory City’s glory days include: the Hope River General Store, two campgrounds, a small exhibit about local First Nations and Chinese miners and a portion of the historic Cariboo Wagon Road.

HISTORIC YALE Yale – established by the Hudson’s Bay Company in 1848 – was once the largest city nor th of San Francisco and west of Chicago. Yale grew to an estimated 30,000 people during the 1858 gold rush.

With the construction of the Cariboo Wagon Road in the 1860s, Yale became the terminus for one of the largest sternwheeler routes in Nor th America and bustled with the building of the Canadian Pacific Railway in the 1880s.

Today, the booming gold rush town has given way to a beautiful village on the banks of the mighty Fraser River.

Built in 1863, St. John the Divine is one of the oldest sur viving churches in BC. Regular services are no longer held here, but it is available for weddings, special events, and daily tours. It is home to ‘Enduring Threads,’ a collection of textiles hand-stitched by the students of All Hallows Girls School (1884-1920).

HELL’S GATE

Photo by Davina

A trip through the Fraser Canyon would not be complete without a stop at Hell’s Gate.

Known primarily for its breathtaking gondola ride, Hell’s Gate is a fun, interactive and educational stop for the whole family.

In 1808, explorer Simon Fraser described this section of the river as a place “where no human being should ever venture, for surely we have encountered the gates of hell.” Aboriginal guides led Fraser and his crew over rope ladders strung from the cliffs above the turbulent river.

Each year, millions of salmon battle insurmountable odds on their upriver journey to spawn and die at their various spawning grounds. One of those overwhelming odds is Hell’s Gate.

Blasting during the construction of the Canadian National Railway in 1913 resulted

in a landslide that wiped out millions of salmon and seemed to permanently block their upriver path. In 1937, Canada and the U.S worked together to create the International Fishways. The fishways are a series of ladders which allow salmon to navigate the rapids at Hell’s Gate.

The Fraser River’s entire flow of water from its 135,185 square kilometre watershed rushes through the narrow

FRASER RIVER GOLD RUSH

Photo by AdvantageHOPE

The Fraser Canyon is a scenic route rich in human history. First Nations traversed the canyon walls using ropes, ladders and bridges. They built a trail network that connected their villages, enabling trade, hunting and resource gathering.

Aside from salmon, the most famous resource in the canyon is gold. In the mid 1800s, Nlaka’pamux First Nations were pulling gold and salmon out of the Fraser to trade with interior and coastal nations.

Though the Hudson’s Bay Company and territorial leaders attempted to keep the existence of gold a secret in order to stop American miners from flooding the region, Americans “discovered” gold near Emory Creek in 1858 and prompted the Fraser River Gold Rush.

OPEN DAILY

from July 1st

Localized disputes regarding disruption of the salmon run and violence perpetrated by miners against First Nations nearly led to all-out war on the banks of the Fraser River in 1858.

The traditional transportation routes through the canyon were not suitable for the massive influx of people after 1858.

First a mule trail (1858) and then the Cariboo Wagon Road (1863) allowed for the overland travel of miners and supplies.

A section of the original mule trail is visible near the southern entrance to Hell’s Gate Tunnel.

Sections of the Cariboo Wagon Road can be seen at a pullout south of the Yale Tunnel and at Alexandra Bridge Provincial Park.

Travel between communities in the canyon changed immeasurably when the Canadian Pacific Railway was completed in 1885. The Canadian National Railway (on the opposite bank of the Fraser) was completed in 1915.

The first automobile road came in 1926, but the modern highway wasn’t completed until the early 1960s.

The highway today passes through 7 tunnels that were blasted through the sheer rock face by road engineers in the late 1950s.

These tunnels range in length from 57 to 610 metres (11th longest tunnel in Canada).

BOSTON BAR & NORTH BEND

Tuckkwiowhum (Tuck-we-ohm) Village – adjacent to Anderson Creek Campground – offers visitors an opportunity to experience a traditional Nlaka’pamux village.

In the heart of the Fraser Canyon (50 minutes north of Hope) lie the twin communities of Boston Bar and North Bend.

• Guided tours • Self-guided tours • Museum and gift shop • Cultural classes and events • Teepee camping

The original settlement on the west side of the river was a Nlaka’pamux village called Koiaum. In what has become a familiar story in the canyon, the Fraser River Gold Rush changed the people and places forever. American miners chasing the mother lode settled in the area and renamed the village Boston Bar in the 1860s. When the Canadian Pacific Railway was completed in 1885 Boston Bar moved to the east side of the river and the western town was renamed North Bend.

For more info visit www.tuckkwiowhumvillage.com

From 1940 to 1986, an aerial ferry connected the two communities. When the ferry was replaced with the Cog Harrington Bridge, it was moved to Francis Harrington Park in downtown Boston Bar. Visitors can now explore the history of the aerial ferry and the two communities it served through a series of interpretive signs.

The Heritage Room at the Old North Bend Primary School has a number of exhibits about the history of Boston Bar and North Bend. This facility is operated by volunteers.
