Harrison Lake is the largest lake in southwestern BC, and is a glacier-fed body of water stretching about 60 kilometres long and up to 9 kilometres wide, flanked by the Lillooet and Douglas Mountain Ranges. The lake played a significant role in the early history of British Columbia as one of the main water routes during the Fraser Canyon Gold Rush of 1858–1860. Today, it’s a popular destination for boating, kayaking, and fishing, especially near the resort community of Harrison Hot Springs at its southern end.
