GERMANSEN LANDING
Is a very remote and unincorporated community located 207 kilometers north of Fort St. James on the Omineca River by following an unpaved and graveled road. It is named for James Germansen, a St. Paul, Minnesota-born prospector, who found gold in the Germansen River in 1870 and was extremely helpful in supporting the Omineca Gold Rush. Today, its economy serves s a base for a guide outfitting industry as well as some tourism, due to its location and relation with several remote hiking trails that are found and located nearby. Williston Lake, British Columbia’s largest lake, is also found near here.
