We have been to the Coalmont – Tulameen area a number of times, hiking and exploring.    On this trip from a number of years ago, we explored Blakeburn and Granite Creek.   There are a lot of historical sites to explore and enjoy.  

A few images are shared here in a gallery format.   Click an image for a lightbox view.
