Location: The Pacific Ranges are the southernmost subdivision of the Coast Moutains, from Bella Coola to the Fraser River. The boundary described here includes the Chilcotin Plateau south of the Chilcotin River and all the islands adjacent to the mainland, although according to some definitions these are not formally part of the Pacific Ranges. Likewise the Lillooet Ranges, which are included here but are not designated as Pacific Ranges on NTS topo maps.
