Davidson Bridge (Nemiah)

Site Description: In June 2014 the Supreme Court of Canada granted the Tsilhqot'in First Nation a declaration of aboriginal title over a certain area. This recreation site is situated just outside the boundary of the declared aboriginal title area, but it is obviously still an area of significance to the Xeni Gwet'in First Nation, as the caretakers for this area. The Tsilhqot'in Nation has declared that canoeing, hiking and light camping are encouraged in the title area, subject to its system of permits. Permits are required for hunting and fishing. For further information please contact the Tsilhqot'in National Government (www.tsilhqotin.ca). The recreation site is located on the Taseko River and is a popular launching point for rafters and kayakers. The two campsites are also used by anglers.

Driving Directions: From Williams Lake, travel west along Hwy 20 for about 90km to Hanceville, and turn left at Lee's Corner onto the Big Creek Road (700 Road). Travel 5.5 km and turn right onto the Taseko Lake Road, and follow signage towards Nemaiah Valley. Follow the Taseko Lake Road (900 Road) for approximately 73km to the Davidson Bridge Recreation Site.
