Cinnamon Creek Rec Site

Cinnamon Creek Rec Site

Finally - we're *camping*! Screw the Cariboo, just south-west of Lillooet on Duffy Lake Road are some amazing rec sites to experience. This is along Cayoosh Creek, which was mined by predominantly Chinese gold miners. The book(s) stated that they tended to stick around 'til nothing was left, as opposed to others who'd move along always looking for the big jackpot. I imagine the Chinese were treated so shabbily by the whites that they felt better off mining somewhere with a diminishing supply than to subject themselves to institutionalized racism. (Shame on Canada for that part of our history!)
