              Image depicts the Cottonwood House Historic Site along Barkerville Highway, east of Quesnel, B.C.

Here fresh horses were hitched to stage-coaches and miners bought supplies. This historic road-house, built in 1864, stood as an oasis of civilization on the frontier of a rich new land."
