a mineral spring in the Silurian dolomitic lime- 

 stones. A yellowish calcareous deposit thickly 

 coats the rock over which the water flows. 

 Another spring rich in calcareous material, 

 occurs about one mile farther down to the right 

 of the railway. Some of the mineral spring 

 water from this canyon has been tested and 

 found to be rather strongly radioactive. 



About half a mile east of Golden the valley 

 of Kicking Horse river opens out into the 

 Columbia valley. In the railway cut at this 

 point there is a good exposure showing the 

 gravels of the Columbia lying against the very 

 steep side of the old valley along the western 

 base of the Beaverfoot range. These stratified 

 gravels extend at least 350 feet (107-5 m -) 

 above the river. 

 35-6 m. Golden — Alt. 2,580 ft. (786 m.). Kicking 



572 km. Horse river joins the Columbia river at this point.
