Greenland carries an official provincial name in the Kootenay Land District, recognized in 1957, at 49.9589, -116.1561. It flows into
skookumchuck creek, which in turn flows into the
kootenay river. It runs stream order 4 (mid-range in the network, on a scale that runs from 1 for a headwater trickle up to 6 or more for a full river), stretches roughly 8 km, and has zero fish records in provincial inventory data, about what you would expect from a small, non-fish-bearing headwater tributary.
