Deadman River, Brook in Thompson River region, British Columbia, Canada

The Deadman River extends 95 kilometers from Hoover Lake through British Columbia before flowing into the Thompson River at an elevation of 341 meters.

The river received its name in 1817 when Pierre Charette of the North West Company lost his life during an argument at a campsite.

The Shuswap people named this waterway 'Hai in wohl', referring to the circular path the river takes through the landscape.

The river system drains an extensive basin of 878 square kilometers, supporting the agricultural activities and ranching operations in the region.

The lower section of the river formed part of the Hudson's Bay Brigade Trail, connecting Fort Vancouver to the New Caledonia fur district.
