Chase is a village located in the Interior of British Columbia, Canada. It has a population of roughly 2,500, and its main industries are forestry and tourism. It is located at the outlet of Little Shuswap Lake, which is the source of the South Thompson River. Chase Creek, which drops over three small waterfalls before flowing through the town, enters the South Thompson just below the lake's outlet.
Chase (population 2,400) is a compact village tucked into a wedge of land at the western end of Little Shuswap Lake where the lake empties into the South Thompson River.
Along the river, a narrow strip of fertile flat land supports agriculture. The Shuswap Highlands rise sharply from the valley and stretch to the north while Mount Scatchard and Mount Boysee dominate the horizon to the south.
Chase is the kind of place that is easy to miss, speeding by on the Trans-Canada Highway, yet villagers welcome visitors and there's plenty to see and do.
People come to Chase for swimming, boating, golfing, hiking, cycling, whitewater rafting, snowmobiling, to sample First Nations culture, bird watching and to view the Adams River Sockeye Salmon Run.
