Bonnington Falls

Bonnington Falls was a waterfall on the Kootenay River between the cities of Nelson and Castelgar, British Columbia. Hydroelectric development means that the falls are no more, see Kootenay Canal. Two of the power plants along this stretch of the river are called Upper Bonnington Falls and Lower Bonnington Falls. Adjacent to the site of the falls is the unincorporated community of Bonnington Falls, British Columbia.
