We left Jasper because rain was coming in *and* there was no place to light except “overflow” campground – an empty field, no services ( not a good place to be while it’s raining).
Our destination was the Fraser Cove Campground in Lillooet BC. We chose this to be close enough to get to the Vancouver Island ferry with a reasonable amount of driving tomorrow. We passed Clinton our second choice – it seemed a nice town. We stopped for a “world Famous Burger” at the Log Cabin pub in Avola. It is a destination for some and has 11 excellent reviews on Yelp even though it’s in the middle of no where and off the road.

We liked the area so much, we stayed two nights beside the Fraser River. On the second day, we walked into Lillooet, a goodly hike. We were rewarded on the way back with a fish hawk / osprey nest on the bridge.
Lillooet is considered to be one of the oldest continuously inhabited locations on the continent, the area is reckoned by archaeologists to have been inhabited for several thousand years.

While in Lillooet we found out that the Vancouver Island ferry was booked up for the next few days, so we decided to head into Vancouver city for a couple of days.
