Kilometres Three miles west of Savona, Kamloops lake 



ends at the broad well-terraced delta of the 

 turbulent Deadman river. The growth of the 

 delta has probably raised the level of Kamloops 

 lake. 



Thompson river here has been forced to the 

 south and bed-rock side of the valley, and from 

 the railroad may be seen the markedly cross- 

 bedded outwash gravels ind silts exposed in 

 the high banks across the river. 



The valley of Deadman creek with its glacially 

 steepened walls, may be seen extending for 

 more than ten miles (16 km.) northward, where 

 it merges into the lava-capped upland plateau. 



The river west of Deadman creek, follows a 

 tortuous course through the thick alluvial 

 valley-fill. Near the 30th mile-post the river 

 makes a prominent horseshoe bend now cut 

 off to form an island and slough across which 

 the Canadian Northern Railway Company are 

 building their line. 



32-1 m. Walhachin — Altitude 1,252 ft. (381-6 m.). . 



51-6 km. Walhachin — the centre of an extensive fruit 

 growing district — is situated on the brink of one 

 of the principal fluvio-glacial terraces of the 

 region. The water for irrigation purposes is 

 flumed from Deadman river. The Thompson 

 valley is very wide here, and the river follows a 

 meandering course within it. The result has 

 been a splendid development of broad, gently 

 sloping terraces preserving old meanders and 

 cusps formed by the river at higher levels.
