Description From Owner:
  • Face Lake - Translation of the Shuswap Indian name Ski-kloosha, meaning 'face,' with possible reference to the mirror effect of the clear water.
  • Gnawed Mountain - A translation of the Shuswap Indian name 'Skutl-heh'-tl,' literally meaning 'eaten to the bone.'
  • Leighton Lake - After James Buie Leighton (1851-1946). He came to British Columbia in 1863 and settled at Savona in the 1870s, ranching, running the ferry, and holding the mail contract until the coming of the CPR.
  • In 1909 the Leighton family created this lake by building a dam to improve their summer range.
  • Mamit Lake - From an Okanagan Indian word applied to the whitefish found in the area.
  • McConnell Hill - After Archibald McConnell, local rancher, who — at the age of sixty-five — entered a horse in the 1892 BC Derby, rode it himself, and won.
