Interior Plateau - Subdivisions

Subdivisions

It has several subdivisions, these being:

  • The Fraser Plateau
    • The Chilcotin Plateau
    • The Cariboo Plateau
      • The Bonaparte Plateau (part of the Thompson Plateau in some definitions, and also known as the Kamloops Plateau)
    • The Nechako Plateau
      • The McGregor Plateau
  • The Thompson Plateau

The Cariboo and Chilcotin Plateaus are separate by the Fraser River. The Nechako Plateau flanks the Fraser on both sides; its southern boundary is defined by the West Road River (aka the Blackwater River) and the Quesnel River, and its northern boundary are the Omineca Mountains and the Cassiar Mountains, which are two major subdivisions of the Interior Mountains.
