Tête Jaune Cache (/tɛt ʒoʊn kæʃ/ or /teɪ dʒɑːn kæʃ/[2]) is an unincorporated rural area and the site of an important abandoned historic town in British Columbia, Canada.
The Secwepemc had an established village of tents and quiggly holes on the banks of the Fraser in this area rich in salmon and wild berries when encountered by Bostonais, but the townsite land of Tête Jaune Cache was officially located in 1901 and Crown-granted in 1902.
[5] During the construction of the Grand Trunk Pacific Railway Tête Jaune Cache was a prosperous community and was the head of navigation for the paddle steamers of Foley, Welch and Stewart and the BC Express Company.
The town was a booming collection of lumber shacks, tents, and log houses which brought thousands of pioneers, trappers, prospectors, foresters, and entrepreneurs to the Robson Valley.
Currently the area under the aegis of Tête Jaune Cache is home to Hauer Brothers' Sawmill, as well as a few small businesses specializing in custom timber milling, woodworking, guided flyfishing, whitewater rafting, snowcat skiing, and bed and breakfast accommodation.
