Cayoosh Creek is a northeast-flowing tributary of the Seton River in the Canadian province of British Columbia. The name is used locally to refer to the final reaches of the Seton River, formerly Seton Creek, and remains on the bridge-sign crossing the stream on BC Highway 99.
Famous quotes containing the word creek:
“It might be seen by what tenure men held the earth. The smallest stream is mediterranean sea, a smaller ocean creek within the land, where men may steer by their farm bounds and cottage lights. For my own part, but for the geographers, I should hardly have known how large a portion of our globe is water, my life has chiefly passed within so deep a cove. Yet I have sometimes ventured as far as to the mouth of my Snug Harbor.”
—Henry David Thoreau (1817–1862)
