Great Canyon

Great Canyon is a dramatic section of British Columbia’s Homathko River, where the water cuts through the Pacific Ranges of the Coast Mountains above the confluence with Mosley Creek, beside the Waddington Range massif that includes Mount Waddington. The largest canyon on the Homathko, it is sometimes called the Grand Canyon of the Homathko. Its rugged setting forms a narrow river passage between the Chilcotin Interior and the Central Coast. In addition to its striking landscape, this stretch of river has been part of broader proposals for hydroelectric development involving the Homathko, Southgate, Chilko, and Taseko rivers.
