Boundary Falls is a locality in the Boundary Country of the Southern Interior of British Columbia, south of the city of Greenwood and west of the city of Grand Forks, British Columbia.[1]
The small community, which consists of only a few small buildings, lies on the north banks of Boundary Creek at the head of a canyon the creek flows into. Not far downstream from the town, within the canyon, the creek drops over Boundary Falls, for which the town was named.
