Map of the watershed – interactive google map, map with watershed boundaries, combination map

1. Here is a link to a google map of the watershed. This is the satellite view. You can see everything. The watershed boundaries are not marked (I don't know if this is possible on a google map) so you will have to compare it to the BC Fisheries map with boundaries listed. If you know of a way to get a google-type map with the watershed boundaries over top please leave your message in the comment box below.

To look at this map, use your computer mouse with the buttons on the left side of the map to move to right/left and up/down and also zoom in and out. You can even find where you live on the map.

2. Here is a link to another map that has the boundaries of the watershed drawn.

3. This is a link to a watershed map for the entire Shuswap watershed that includes the Shuswap River Watershed. http://www.shuswapwatershed.ca/watershed_maps.html

4. This is a great site where you can get any combination of map types you want. You can also then send out a link to this map and also print the map you make. It is very slow on dial up, but doable.
