Nowadays, visitors come to see the beautiful backdrop of the popular cult film. Because filming of First Blood was primarily in the Hope area, the Hope and District Chamber of Commerce has developed a walking and driving tour of some of the film's key locations. Most of these sites are in Hope's downtown core and make for a colorful Hollywood experience by foot. The sites that are farther out are easily accessed by car and are perhaps the best part of the Rambo adventure. The map below is divided into letters and numbers.
Letters correspond to driving tour sites and numbers correspond to the walking tour ones.
B. Location of the gas station which Rambo blew up as a diversion. The station was built specifically to be destroyed. D. Heading towards the Othello Tunnels, known as Chapman Gorge in the movie. Here the police officer falls out of the helicopter and is killed. Observers can see where Rambo clung for his life as he hung precariously on the rock walls of the gorge, high above the waters of the Coquihalla River.
