Defrauder Creek -- BCGN Official name: "Adopted 3 July 1963 on 92G; an established local name according to Geological Survey of Canada field staff."
It would be nice to know how the creek earned the name "defrauder" that is "a person who swindles you by means of deception or fraud" per definition. I wonder if it has anything to do with the workings of "Slumach Lost Creek Mine Ltd." in that area in 1952/1953, finding nothing and leaving their investors with not more than a piece of paper and a lost dream.
