Canim Falls
Canim Falls is a 23 metre high waterfall on the Canim River between Canim Lake and Mahood Lake in Wells Grey Provincial Park in the Cariboo region of the Central Interior of British Columbia, Canada.[1][2] The waterfall has eroded steadily upstream and created a 4 km (2.5 mi) long canyon cut into a lava plateau associated with the Wells Gray-Clearwater volcanic field.
A trail from Mahood Lake Road leads to Canim Falls and nearby Mahood Falls.
"Canim" means a type of large canoe in the Chinook Jargon.
