Our story is one of First Nations people, pioneering spirits and a tenacity for getting things done.

The Barriere / Lower North Thompson Valley is where the badlands transform into lush ranchland, forests, and mountains. The rounded slopes of the Monashee Mountains watch over fields of alfalfa as ranchers ride the range. Adams Lake cradles the land and all its history, while the Adams River patiently waits for the sockeye to return each year. Hundreds of lakes, filled with the famous fighting Kamloops Trout, dot the valley, most only a short drive off the main highway. Drop your line from any dock or boat and you’re bound to get a nibble no matter what the time of year. Wild, rustic and irresistible is how visitors and locals describe the Lower North Thompson Valley. With a population of fewer than 7,000 people in an area of 1550 sq. km (600 sq mi) there’s plenty to explore between the towns and hamlets of the area.
