(9 miles north of Salmon Arm on Salmon Arm-Sicamous Highway)

This beautiful lake takes its name form the Shuswap Indian, northernmost of the great Salishan family and the largest tribe in Interior BC.  Once numbering over 5,000 these people were fishermen and hunters.  They roamed in bands through a vast land of lakes and forest stretching 150 miles to the west, north, and east.
