Nicoamen River

The Nicoamen River is a tributary of the Thompson River in the southern Interior of British Columbia, Canada, located 15 kilometres (9 mi) upstream from its confluence with the Thompson at Lytton.

The Nicoamen forms the extreme northeast boundary of the Cascade Mountains and part of the western boundary of the Thompson Plateau. Located nearby is the Nicoamen Plateau, a small subplateau of the Thompson Plateau.

History

The confluence of the Thompson and Nicoamen is the site of one of the incidents which led to the Fraser Canyon Gold Rush of 1858–60, as the location of a meet-up between the Nlaka'pamux people of the area and American miners.

gollark: Anyway, Nim:- is reasonably fast (even if certain libraries are beelike)- has nice syntax- has decent library existence- is able to bind to C stuff, which I have actually used in this because cmark-gfm is very fast- is fairly pleasant to write- has cool metaprogramming- has a compiler which mostly runs bearably fastthus I am using it.
gollark: `openring`, that is, which generates the "from other blogs" bit on my website.
gollark: Also, in the past I had to write about three lines of code to make a Go project faster, because despite Go's main thing being parallelism the authors did not bother to parallelize it despite it being trivially possible to do so.
gollark: Well, in my foolish youth I actually did use it a decent bit. I also used Apple products and was excited about Windows 10, so something.
gollark: LIES!
