Mounted on a tall steel tower on the south side of Highway 5, the Coquihalla Highway, this one looks southwest down the highway from its viewpoint at the summit. Given the importance of the highway and the amounts of snow it receives in the winter, there are quite a few cameras along this stretch of road.
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
