Defauly Creek is located near Spuzzum, British Columbia, Canada. Defauly Creek is a small salmon-spawning creek that feeds into the Fraser River. The easiest access point to the creek is found about 2 km south of the village of Spuzzum where it can be found crossing under the Trans-Canada Highway through a large culvert.
The creek was named after local pioneer Marco De Fauly who homesteaded in the area with his family in the 1930s.
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)
