Description
Coming into the light, watching the intensive mountain lake storm pass through this high country valley in the Kootenays in the beautiful British Columbia country. While my husband fishes, I paint and thrill at the scenery, air and wildlife.
Founded by Frank Fletcher of Nelson in 1892, Slocan City was the smallest incorporated city in the British Commonwealth - perhaps in the world. In 1958 Slocan City reincorporated as a village and is now known as the Village of Slocan.The booming mining town served as the terminus for the old railway, and sternwheelers plied the lake carrying minerals, goods, and people. In 1942 when the Japanese-Canadians were interned, there was a large population housed in and around Slocan City. At the back of the town cemetery is the only surviving Buddhist Cemetery from this era.
