    Area Data

    Clearwater

    Clearwater is a small town located in the Thompson-Nicola region at the confluence of the Clearwater River and the North Thompson River. The town is known for its proximity to Wells Gray Provincial Park, one of the largest and most scenic parks in BC. The town serves as the primary gateway to this wilderness area, attracting tourists with its stunning waterfalls, lakes, and hiking trails.

    As of the most recent census, Clearwater has a population of around 2,300 people. It is a small, close-knit community with a rural lifestyle. The population swells in the summer due to tourism, but it remains relatively quiet in the off-season. Clearwater's economy is largely supported by:

    • Tourism: the town is a hub for visitors to Wells Gray Provincial Park, which features Helmcken Falls, one of Canada's highest waterfalls, as well as opportunities for hiking, canoeing, and wildlife viewing. Tourism peaks in the summer and winter months due to activities like hiking, fishing, kayaking, and snowmobiling.
    • Forestry: historically, Clearwater has relied heavily on the forestry industry. There are sawmills and other wood-processing facilities in the area that continue to play a role in the local economy.
    • Agriculture: the surrounding area supports some agriculture, particularly cattle ranching and small-scale farming.

    Clearwater has a variety of small businesses that cater to both the local population and the tourist industry. There is a good grocery store (Save-On-Foods), hardware store, a nice mix of restaurants, cafes, fast food outlets, multiple banking options and a nice variety of shops and a hospital.

Winters are cold, with average temperatures often below freezing, around -5°C to -10°C (23°F to 14°F). Snowfall is common, and the area becomes a winter playground for snow sports.
