HBC BRIGADES, 1846 EXPEDITION:
"At 6 pm encamped opposite some islands, having come about 24 miles on the lake. We fell in with 3 Indians very opportunely this afternoon, for they supplied us with some dried salmon, our former stock of which was exhausted.
"Sunday. Heavy rain. Set out at 2 1/4 am. At 6.40 reached the end of the lake #HarrisonLake where a sluggish current commences. The total length of the lake is about 36 miles, according to my computation. #HistoricJourney #AmWritingHistory

HBC BRIGADES, 1846 EXPEDITION:
"Cloudy. Having carried our canoes we set out at 2 3/4 am, and after passing with occasional delays a succession of rapids connected by an impetuous current, we arrived at the second lake #HarrisonLake at 10.35. It varies in breadth from 2 to 4 miles. The upper end bounded by steep and rocky shores affording few, if any, harbors for a long distance. At 6 pm encamped opposite some islands, having come about 24 miles on the lake. #HistoricJourney #AmWritingHistory

In 1846, A.C. Anderson and his men embarked on an exploring expedition that would take them through modern-day Seton and Anderson Lakes, and down the Lillooet River to #HarrisonLake and, eventually, #FortLangley. This was the first of four cross-country journeys between #Kamloops and #FortLangley #BritishColumbia #History #Blogpost http://nancymargueriteanderson.com/lillooet-river/
