	Where is 150 Mile House? During the Cariboo Gold Rush of 1858, in the Interior Plateau of British Columbia, road houses were set approximately 10 Miles apart on the 250 mile journey from the staging post of Lilloett, on the Fraser River, to the gold fields in Barkerville. The road houses were conveniently named for their location along the length of the road. The names stuck. One thing is for sure: you always know exactly where you are. It wreaks havoc with the code in some java scripts, though, where clever programmers code in error messages if you type in numbers in a text field! So, just to be perfectly clear: 150 Mile House is between 140 Mile House and Miocene, or between Lac La Hache and Willliams Lake, or halfway between Kamloops and Prince George, or 6.5 hours northeast of Vancouver.			108 Mile Lake
