Geschichte:
The earliest inhabitants on record are the Lil'wat First Nations people who still live in the region. Their lives are closely tide to the land and seasonal changes for the best times to hunt, fish and collect medicines.
During the mid-1800's excited explorers and prospectors combed the area and were on route to the far regions of the new province. By 1860 Lillooet (known then as
Cayoosh Flat) would be on its way to reaching its twenty year population peak of over 15,000. That same year it would be renamed Lillooet in the honour of the Lil'wat First Nations.
