Fishing on Chilcotin River

Canada, BC
Link |   |  JAKND  
The Chilcotin is also home to the last leg of Alexander MacKenzie’s journey to the Pacific, the first recorded crossing of the continent in 1793. To experience the same trip, consider hiring an outfitter to guide you through the trail.



Visitors return to the Chilcotin year after year for unforgettable fishing, hiking, canoeing, horseback riding, snowmobiling, and cross-country ski trips. A helicopter tour will take you to one of several wilderness destinations, including Mount Waddington, the highest peak in British Columbia, towering 4,016 m (13,052 ft) over the landscape below.
