| No dates yet | The Hoodoos |

Did you know the Hoodoos were formed more than 10,000 years ago? The clay benches along the South Thompson River formed the bottom and shoreline of glacial Lake Thompson. Centuries of erosion have created these exotic and intriguing rock formations; a fascinating experience! Zero your odometer on the main road leading into the Kamloops Airport. Go west, towards the Tranquille Farm for 3.5 kms. There is a small gravel pullout on the right side of the road, where you park your vehicle and will meet the group. This is opposite to the Cinnamon Ridge garbage dump. | |
