Bella Coola is a small town at the end of North Bentinck Arm, a large coastal fjord about 200 miles north of Vancouver, British Columbia. The coastal valley it sits in is surrounded by 6 to 9,000 foot peaks that rise abruptly from the valley floor. This vally can be reached by a small coastal ferry from the west, or via a precipitous, cliff-hugging road from the east.
 
 
M. Gurr Lakes, Bella Coola

Photo taken from the M. Gurr Lakes, near the end of Clayton Falls Creek road, southwest of Bella Coola, British Columbia. Clayton Falls Creek Road is a gut rattling road that has been maintained by removing old culverts and converting them to swales. What a view from the top! The ridges above the M. Gurr lakes stand at the junction of three large inlets: Burke Channel and North and South Bentinck Arms.

Clayton Creek Falls

Clayton Creek Falls is Clayton Creek's last tumble before it meets the salt water of North Bentinck Arm. The water is more vigorous and treacherous than this photo would suggest; a tourist was drowned in the falls the year before this picture was taken. Bella Coola, British Columbia.
