Kleena Kleene

Kleena Kleene /ˌkliːnə ˈkliːn, ˌkliːnə ˈkliːni/ is an unincorporated settlement and recreational community on the western end of the Chilcotin Plateau, west of Tatla Lake and northeast of One-Eye Lake. It lies in the upper reaches of the basin of the Klinaklini River, for which it is named, and which penetrates the Pacific Ranges of the Coast Mountains to enter the sea at the head of Knight Inlet. The community is recreational in nature and like nearby Nimpo Lake it is a base for sightseeing to Hunlen Falls, Klinaklini Falls and Chilko Lake, and for fly-outs to fishing on the area's many small plateau and alpine lakes.

gollark: I make all my concrete on a Keansian surplus machine near their parliament building, it's great.
gollark: It would be somewhat easier to attract players if it wasn't, again, artificially stopped.
gollark: Well, yes, but no-advertising-other-servers rules artificially tries to drag it down *further*.
gollark: Down with "no advertising other servers" rules, which are blatantly an attempt to reduce competition!
gollark: I never did launch osmarks.tkcraft™, since SC came back.
