Nicola Valley, British Columbia CM11-02

Description : The charming Nicola Valley is steeped in history; mining and railways, western lifestyle, and First Nations culture.

The name Nicola was given to the famous chieftain Hwistesmetxquen by the early fur traders for the obvious reason that they couldnt pronounce his Native name. When they tried it phonetically, it sounded vaguely like Nicholas or Nicola, and their mispronunciation has remained.
