The landscape possesses a stoic quality, with the low-angled sun casting long, heavy shadows across the earth that seem to hold the heat of the day long after the light has begun to fade. Clearwater maintains its character through a long-standing relationship with the surrounding timber and the seasonal pulse of the land, drawing strength from the industry that has sustained residents for generations. The presence of North Thompson River Park provides a point of connection to the water, while the dramatic descent of Spahats Creek Falls serves as a reminder of the raw, vertical energy contained within the nearby geography.
