From the Journal of Lt. Lempriere, RE, from the trail near Hope.

2nd
Thursday – Moved my camp on about 2 miles: very rough traveling
and snow very rotten: it was from 2 to 3 feet deep outside our
tents and thawing rapidly –

Note: In 2004, June is NOT a month where one would expect 3 feet of
snow in the Valleys near Hope, BC. The climate has most certainly changed
since 1859.
