Pavilion - Marble Canyon Provincial Park

Usually, our Cariboo trip is in May. In 2014, our May was booked with London and Portugal. So it was that we visited Quesnel in the middle of June. Coming south on this day (2014-06-18), we opted for a break at the Marble Canyon Provincial Park. Surprisingly, the picnic area was deserted.

Pavilion - Cowboy Country on the Diamond-S Ranch

In early May, the highway between Hat Creek Ranch and Lillooet led us past the ranching country around Pavillion. As luck would have, while speeding by, we noticed a cloud of dust rising from a roadside corral. We turned around to investigate. To our surprise, we happened upon the cowboys of the Diamond-S Ranch rounding up calves for the spring branding and inoculation. Clearly POSTCARD stuff.
