Comaplix was a former mining town on theIncomappleux River in theUpper Arrow Lake area of theWest Kootenay region ofBritish Columbia. The name of the town and an adjacent mountain and creek derived from the river. Cleared in 1896, the town was surveyed and a sawmill established the next year. The suspicious 1915 fire, which levelled the buildings, largely ended the flourishing hamlet. The site, north ofBeaton, on the northeast side of the lake's Beaton Arm, comprised merely concrete foundations when theKeenleyside Dam reservoir submerged the area in 1968.[1][2] The small overgrown cemetery above the townsite is all that remains.[3]
