En 1858 eut lieu la première vague d'immigration de chercheurs d'or. La découverte de pépites dans les alluvions du Fraser et de ses tributaires venant des monts Cariboo se produisit une dizaine d'années après la célèbre "ruée" de la Californie. (...)

Cariboo Road, the wagon road constructed in 1862-65 in the valley of the Fraser River in B. C., during the Cariboo gold rush.(...) It ran(...) a distance of about 400 miles. In view of the difficult and precipitous character of the canyon and country traversed, the road was justly regarded as a triumph of engineering. In the present century it has become a modern highway. 1, record 2, English, - Cariboo%20Road
