Chinese Rock Piles (C)
US$0.00
On both sides of the Fraser River at Lillooet one can find "Chinese Rocks" - a reminder of the search for gold by Chinese people before the turn of the century. Washing the sand and gravel for the elusive yellow metal, the Chinese neatly piled the washed rocks, in some places more than 12 feet high, in long rows. For examples, look close to the Hangmen's Tree, downstream from the Old Suspension Bridge, and on the east side of the Fraser.
