Hagwilget Signpost Along Highway 16

Text on sign:
HAGWILGET
"The home of the quiet people" was a Carrier Indian village on the banks below. Here a bridge spanned the Bulkley River before the non-Indians arrived. Poles, lashed with cedar "rope", were supporting timbers for this noted "marvel of primitive engineering". Later, reinforeced with wire by the crews of the telegraph line, it served for half a century.
