History:
Located at head of Harrison Lake at the mouth of the Lillooet River, 112 km from Pemberton.
Douglas, Skookum Chuck and Samahquam First Nations were originally called the Douglas Tribes, after Governor Douglas. He ordered a port be built at the place now called Port Douglas, for the start of the Caribou Highway into the Interior of British Columbia in 1858. The original Douglas Reserve was 2,500 acres, and included the town site at Port Douglas.
During the Goldrush year of 1858, on July 25th, a steamboat the Umatilla departed Fort Langley carrying 80 miners for a run up the Harrison River and Harrison Lake. The miners then hiked overland to Seton lake, following this water route north through Anderson lake to Lillooet. In August, Douglas appointed Anderson to oversee the construction of a mule trail 4 feet wide along the portages between the lakes of the Harrison Lillooet route. Douglas hired 100's of unemployed miners to build the Road paying their transportation (part way to the gold fields), equipment and food only - they provided their labour free of charge. In December, 1858, the Victoria Gazette printed that goods could now be taken from Port Douglas at the head of Harrison Lake to Lillooet at a cost of 18 cents a pound compared to the Fraser Canyon trails where charges of 46-47 cents per pound were levied between Yale to Lytton.
BC's first highway is now a 4x4 road linking Lillooet, Pemberton and Harrison lake.
All macros are made by me using EOD (Easy Object Designer).
I have so many textures now that it has become too difficult to tell where they are all from. If you see your textures here, i thank you for them.
Most of the textures here have been painted or re-painted by me using Paintshop Pro 7.
Static aircraft were made with M98toBGL, and painted by me with Paintshop.
Macros were placed with Airport 2.60.
Night textures included.
