The Fraser Canyon is a major landform of the Fraser River where it descends rapidly through narrow rock gorges in the Coast Mountains en route from the Interior Plateau of British Columbia to the Fraser Valley. Colloquially, the term "Fraser Canyon" is often used to include the Thompson Canyon from Lytton to Ashcroft, since they form the same highway route which most people are familiar with, although it is actually reckoned to begin above Williams Lake at Soda Creek Canyon near the town of the same name.
The Clear Range is a small mountain range located in the angle of the Fraser and Thompson Rivers in south-central British Columbia, Canada. It has a small subdivision just northeast of that confluence named the Scarped Range. The Clear Range totals 16,270 km2 (6,280 sq mi) and is 75 km (47 mi) north to south and 35 km (22 mi) east to west. The Clear Range and its northward neighbour the Marble Range are both subranges of the Pavilion Range.
Opened in 1931, the Canadian National Railway (CNR) steel truss swing span railway bridge over the north arm of the Fraser River in Metro Vancouver links Burnaby with Richmond and the south arm Vancouver Fraser Port Authority facilities on Lulu Island.

Siska, also known historically as Cisco, is a locality in the Fraser Canyon, 9.4 kilometres south of the town of Lytton, British Columbia, Canada. It is at Siska that the Canadian Pacific and Canadian National Railways switch from one side of the river to the other, because it is impossible for both rail lines to occupy the same bank of the Fraser, due to the narrow and steep terrain. The resulting pair of bridges, with the CNR bridge just upstream of the CPR's, and the CPR's bridge's west foot entering the Cantilever Bar Tunnel into the side of Cisco Bluff, remains one of the most famous images of the CPR's route through British Columbia today and is easily viewable from the adjacent Trans-Canada Highway.
The Kettle Falls Bridges is the collective name for a pair of steel cantilever bridges carrying State Route 20/U.S. Route 395 and the Kettle Falls International Railway across the Columbia River at Kettle Falls, Washington.

The Lytton CNR Thompson Bridge is a deck truss bridge carrying the Canadian National Railway tracks from across the Thompson River at Lytton, British Columbia, approximately 200 meters (660 ft) upstream of where the Thompson River merges into the Fraser River. It is of a similar design and should not be confused with the Lytton CNR Fraser Bridge located approximately 1.4 kilometers (0.87 mi) south. It consists of 3 deck Pratt truss spans which are supported on four concrete piers. The centre two piers are in the river while the outer two are shorter and above the waterline. British Columbia Highway 12 crosses the Thompson River mostly parallel to, and slightly downstream of this bridge. The south end of the road bridge is directly above the south end of the railroad bridge.
The Lytton CNR Fraser Bridge is a deck truss bridge carrying the Canadian National Railway tracks across the Fraser River at Lytton, British Columbia. It is of a similar design to the Lytton CNR Thompson Bridge, located approximately 1.4 kilometers (0.87 mi) north. The bridge consists of three deck Pratt truss spans; the centre span measures approximately 90 metres, and each side span measures approximately 45 metres. The approach at either end is a pair of deck plate girder spans of approximately 20m each. The three centre truss spans are supported on four concrete piers. At each end, the approach girder spans are supported on the abutments, a taller and thinner concrete pier, and the truss spans. The Fraser River's water level varies dramatically throughout the year; the centre piers can be fully surrounded by rushing water in the spring and completely on dry land in late summer and fall. A pedestrian walkway on the north side of the bridge serves Indian reserve communities and other rural residents on the west side of the Fraser River.
