Gun Creek (British Columbia)
For other uses, see Gun Creek.
Gun Creek is a major left (north) tributary of the Bridge River in the Interior of British Columbia, Canada. Located at its mouth into today's Carpenter Lake was Minto City, a gold mining town established in the 1930s and destroyed by a flood in the later 1940s. Carpenter Lake is a reservoir of the Bridge River Hydroelectric Project. Gun Lake is part of the creek's basin but is not on the creek itself, but connected to it by a short stream from its northeastern end.
