Fur, Gold, and Cattle roadside sign.

Text on sign : "Fur, Gold, and Cattle. : Founded in 1812, Fort Kamloops stood at a natural crossroads. For 50 years it remained the focus of an inland fur empire until the roaring mining boom of the 1860's. Ranchers, with cattle and horses, replaced the miners. They settled, and stayed, to see two railways bring prosperity anew to this land of sagebursh, sun and great rivers. : Department of Recreation & Conservation."
