4 km. west of the Elkhart Road interchange there is a pullout/rest area on the north side of the highway for westbound traffic. This multicam is there, mounted high on a steel pole near the east end of the pullout, looking east down the highway. There's power by the road, so no solar panels here. This is only about 25 km. east of the Highway 97C-Highway 5 junction. The other camera has been here for several years - this one has just recently been added.
The road goes to Elkhart Lake and Elkhart Lodge, a high country fishing lodge. We've never fished there, but I'm willing to bet that the fishing is pretty good.
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.
