Provincial Park
The Canadian Northern Pacific Last Spike stop of interest plaque is located in a pull-off on the Trans-Canada Highway approximately 15 km south of Ashcroft/19.5 km north of Spences Bridge. Access to Epsom Park is via an unmarked access road just to the south of the Last Spike plaque; use caution when entering and exiting. Please note that the road is only passable in its lower section by 4 wheel-drive vehicles, and that the road stops short of the railway tracks; access to the other side of the tracks is by foot only. Beware of posion ivy.
Parking:
Park at large pullout by plaque and hike down, or park on 4x4 access trail on the flat field before steep downhill descent.
Clue:
Beside 4x4 trail to the right at the gulley. Under large sage brush.
