Ep. 427: Gold Rush Ghost Town - Quesnel & Barkerville, BC | RV travel camping Canada

Quesnel lies right on the main route to northern British Columbia and the Yukon, and was one of the last major stops for miners on their way to the Cariboo Gold Rush of the mid-1800s. While RV camping at the Quesnel Downtown RV Park & Campground we explore Quesnel and Barkerville, now a well-preserved mining ghost town that was once at the epicenter of the Cariboo Gold Rush of the 1860s.

We're based in Salt Lake City, Utah during the winter months, and invite you to come along as we travel all around North America. My wife Patricia and I, and dog Zoe are avid boondockers, so while you'll occasionally find us in RV parks or even dry campgrounds, we're usually camped in some of the most remote and beautiful spots that you could ever pull a travel trailer into. We've now transitioned from "long-timing" for six months a year, to living and traveling in our RV full-time. We'll provide beautiful travel videos, as well as some tips and insight on trip planning, and equipping and maintaining your RV to make your next adventure a grand one indeed!
