Well...... "Beaver Creek Canyon" is a name I first heard about 10-15 years ago. Doris' book and maps show it as "Elbert Creek". Elbert Creek is the creek that forms Haviland Lake up near Purgatory. Seems wierd to change a name mid-stream. I'd guess it was named for some critters that inhabit the steam somewhere.
I always thought "Elbert Creek Canon" was a nice name.
