The Stein Valley west of Lytton B. C. is famous for its beautiful and easily viewed pictographs. A deep, narrow valley of swiftly flowing water, it is wondrous hiking especially on hot summer days.
Be aware that access has become more difficult. Jan, 2007 precipitation events washed out the west side road south to Boston Bar. It has been reported that the gravel road north to Lillooet was drivable. The schedule of the reaction ferry which connects the Fraser Canyon (Hwy 1) with the remote west side, has been affected by a labor problem. The hours as well as the days of operation have been dramatically reduced. At this time, the ferry is only running early morning and late afternoon with no services in the evening and none on Saturday or Sunday. Be sure to check the ferry status or your easy Friday access may require a difficult and long detour for a Sunday return.
