Chasm Creek

Category : Creek
 

The name originally proposed by the British Columbia-Alberta Boundary Survey in 1950-51 was Canyon Creek. This was rejected as there were already several creeks by that name in Alberta. Later suggestions included Kloof Creek and Cleave Creek, but Chasm Creek was the name finally approved.

Flows west into British Columbia approximately 45 km south-west of Rainbow Lake.
