This BC Highways Webcam is mounted on a steel pole at the east end of the rest area, looking west past the rest area. It's about a kilometer west of the Bowron River Bridge and seven kilometers west of Purden Lake Resort. Off the grid, so to speak, this webcam is solar powered, with a couple of solar panels mounted on the same pole.

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.
