Here one can get a magnificent view of the mountains surrounding the city of Kitimat while leaving the town and driving towards Terrace. Kitimat is a model city built by top planners in order that up to 50,000 people could be housed and serviced. The basic industry is a huge Aluminum Smelter, lumbering some fishing and tourist trade. The name Kitimat was derived from the Indian Village across Kitimat channel.
