Hitchhiked by night, lots of traffic coming back from snow day in Whistler. Red light is long enough to go between cars with a sign. Once you got a ride, they can easily pull over if needed, after the traffic light.Gas station also available, didn't try tho.
Got a ride from Cedric, a French guy who travel a lot as well. Good convo as we were jammed in traffic.

Probably got lucky on this one.Short waiting time, I've only seen a few trucks and one car going this way. While driving, almost no traffic passed us before we reached Kamloops.
Dave, a truck driver, stopped and brought me all the way to Vancouver, despite not necessarily being allowed. He offered me lunch and when he stopped at night, he offered me to sleep in his truck. In the morning, he waited for me and dropped me close to a train stop so I could keep going downtown

US Border control. If you try hitchhiking from Canada the best thing to do is walking across the border from White Rock and start hitchhiking behind the border control.Nobody likes to bring foreigners across the border.

Not such a bad spot if you're going east - I even got a ride after dark. Easy access to public transit, good viewing distance, room to pull over, an adjacent empty lot to sleep in if your luck is not so good.―Anonymous

Two boys (one with dredlocks) = 5 hours of waiting without succcess.After 5 hours we moved to the different spot and never waited more than 1,5h on the way to Kelowna.
But place looks like very good: lots of cars passing not so fast with lots of space to stop.

Worse border crossing ever in both ways! US patrol officier found my blog address in my backpack and went online to read it. He also read my journal. I got denied entrance because he found some comments about minor offences while I was in California...Watch out!

Much traffic going east. Good spot, drivers can pull over. Waiting time about 30 min. They take you and they take you a long time ;-) Canada rocks!―Anonymous
