Peace Canyon Dam

About 5 km (3 mi.) south of Hudson's Hope, Peace Canyon Dam, 50 m (164 ft) high, and 533 m (1749 ft) long, dams up Peace River for a second time, where it leaves the canyon, 23 km (14 mi.) below Bennett Dam. In the Peace Canyon Dam Visitor Center next to the power station, more exhibitions tell of the natural history of the region and the history of its settlement.
