The California Gold rush coming to an end?
The California gold rush has been the first gold rush in North America and has been slowing down for the past two years. This gold rush was a big hit and brought many immigrants to California. Ever since things have slown down in California there seems to be a new huge gold rush but in Canada this time.

Thousands of men and women arriving in British Columbia.
Why are people showing up in Vancouver Island. That is because there is a huge gold rush along the Fraser River. Now is your time to try and strike rich.
Along the Fraser River from Williams Lake and Quesnel. People are coming from San Francisco, New York, London, Beijing and more. Most of there journeys consisted of taking ships, walking on food, going up and over mountains and along rivers. Many ships have sailed in the last couple of days many miners hopping to strike rich.

Barkerville
The new largest mining town in the Caribou named after Billy Barker who stuck rich around Williams Lake a few days ago. Mr. Barker struck $500,000 worth of gold. Many people have rushed over to continue looking for more gold. This new town seems to be the biggest community for miners and for people doing business.

Caribou Wagon Road
The wagon road is a road that goes from fort Yale all the way to Barkerville what a road it costed a lot and was a very confusing payment process. This wonderful road was created all by hand and took two years to build. This road makes traveling and transporting around Vancouver Island a lot easier.
