A little way away from this cache is a large rock cairn at the end of the parking lot. In 2010, the brass plaque was stolen but I had taken a picture of it a few years before. I convinced the Association of Professional Engineering Association of BC (who originally dedicated it in 1927) to replace it. It took 3 years, but the plaque was finally replaced. The steel replacement has rusted over the years, but it is much better than a blank space!
The plaque reads:
1859-1927
IN COMMEMORATION
OF THE WORK OF
HER MAJESTY'S ROYAL ENGINERS
AND IN RESPECTFUL ADMIRATION OF THE
SKILL AND ENERGY DISPLAYED BY THEM
FROM 1859 TO 1863 IN THE CONSTRUCTION OF
THE ORIGINAL CARIOO HIGHWAY
THROUGH THE FRASER CANYON
THIS TABLET IS ERECTED AND DEDICATED
BY
THE ENGINEERING INSTITUTE OF CANADA
AND
THE ASSOCIATION OF PROFESSIONAL ENGINEERS
OF BRITISH COLUMBIA
