On the top of the concrete bridge seat at the southeast corner of the bridge, this benchmark is very easy to spot. Behind the southeast wingwall, it's a couple of feet east of the bottom of the bridge girder, mounted horizontally in the centre of the seat.
NRCAN, below, calls this McIntyre Creek, but I believe it to be Vaseux Creek and GeoBC agrees. Maybe locally it has two names.
