Ymir Creek is a creek in the Selkirk Mountains in the West Kootenay region of the Regional District of Central Kootenay in British Columbia, Canada. The creek is a tributary of the Salmo River which it meets in the centre of the town of Ymir. Its source is a few kilometres up Wildhorse Mountain. The creek is named for the town of Ymir which in turn was named for Ymir Mountain, a mountain a few kilometres to the north. Ymir Mountain is named for Ymir, the Norse god.[1]
