Sunshine
Valley is a 1300 acre tract of land located like a gem in a vast wilderness
park. Its eastern boundary is less than 2 miles from Manning Park's
west entrance.
There is a rich
& interesting history connected to the valley; beginning when engineers
pushed the Old Dewdney Trail through to Princeton. In the 1920's,
an enterprising mining executive by the name of Amos B. Trites acquired
this property and named it A.B. Trites Hope Ranch.
When World War
II broke out, the Canadian Government took over the valley and interred
3000 Japanese Canadians there. After the war, the property was returned
to its former owner who continued to raise prize beef and dairy cattle;
until it was sold to the Boys Town Association in 1955.
In 1962, an American
firm bought the property planning to develop it into a resort. The
Hope Slide occured in January 1965, providing a viewpoint at the west
end of this picturesque valley. Sunshine Valley Developments, realizing
the potential of this unique valley, bought it in May 1970 and made
plans to transform it into a beautiful, year-round Recreational, Residential
Community.
The uniqueness
of Sunshine Valley is its proximity to Vancouver, with less than a
2 hour drive on B.C.'s best 4-lane highway and neighbours to world
famous Manning Park.
