Bridge River Valley

"The Bridge River is - or was - one of the Fraser's largest and most historic tributaries, although it is largely obscure to most British Columbians today."

These are kinda words that perk my ears up. Welcome to a little slice of heaven on earth. The towns of Gold Bridge (Wiki population 250), Bralorne (60), Brexton (a dozen, if that) and Pinoneer Mine (abandon) make up the Gold River valley. Many recreational cabins exist on Gun lake, Carpenter and Downton Lake making up the majority of the areas population.
