Mile) is an unincorporated community in the
South Cariboo region of British Columbia. It is at
the junction of
Highway
24 and
Highway 97.
It is
located approximately 11 km (7 mi) south of 100 Mile House
. 93 Mile House was the name of a roadhouse
built to serve travellers on the
Cariboo
Road during the
Cariboo Gold
Rush.
The name 93 Mile House results from its
location at the 93 Mile-post from Lillooet
on the Old Cariboo
Road, which was built to serve Cariboo goldfields-bound
travellers before the opening of the "newer" Cariboo Road via Ashcroft
.
