  • 3. Seton Lake Lillooet

  • 4. The Old Suspension Bridge Lillooet
    Bridge of the Twenty-Three Camels is the official name of the highway bridge over the Fraser River at Lillooet, British Columbia, Canada, on BC Highway 99. It replaced the older 1913-vintage Lillooet Suspension Bridge, just upstream, which had no highway designation but connected the town to BC Highway 12, a designation which today only refers to the Lillooet-Lytton highway but, until the extension of the 99 designation from Pemberton, also included the Lillooet-Cache Creek highway. As something of a joke on this name, the crossing of the Yalakom River at Moha, a small concrete truss span, sports the sign Bridge of the Twenty-Three Chipmunks.
