When built, the Coquihalla Highway was a toll highway for many years. But it was such an improvement on how to get to the coast that a zillion people paid the toll and paid for the highway. So, we could call this the "Toll Booth Memorial BC Highways Webcam". The camera is atop a steel pole on the southeast side of the highway at the south end of a pullout, looking north.

A couple of hundred metres southwest is a rest area and washrooms for northbound traffic. The rest area for southbound traffic is a few kilometres further southwest.

Visiting
Given that it's possible to "Replay The Day" on the web cam's web page, one need only stand at the coordinates for at least two minutes to ensure that they're captured on a minimum of one frame, then find and save the appropriate image later that day. Alternatively, if one has an internet connection in their hand tuned to the URL below, they only need wait until they appear on their screen, then save that frame.

The image below is essentially real time and will update every 2 minutes, but only if you update the page manually. BC Highway webcams are owned and operated by the B.C. Ministry of Transportation and Infrastructure. They are accessible online at DriveBC.
