This wonderfully restored steamship is amazing, please make this a stop and support their efforts to preserve history. There is an admission but it’s well worth it. I started with the informational video that I found helped put it all in context, then explore the ship at your leisure. Lots of information both in the brochure and on the signs that tell a wonderful story of the role this shipped played but also about the lives of people that would be passengers. Don’t miss this stop.

Careful or you'll miss this spot, just outside Kaslo. Well worth a visit to some very pretty falls and a nice quiet beach for a picnic, perhaps, or just sunbathe on the side of the lake

I’d never been to Kaslo before. It’s a little mountain town off the beaten path in the West Kootenays. We’d heard great things about it so my wife and made it part of our anniversary trip. What a beautiful spot! We both like beer so we stopped into Angry Hen. We were greeted by a very friendly and welcoming person who talked with us about the history of the brewery (or the brewer as the brewery is 2 years old or so) and she helped us pick out the best beers to try for our tastes. The beers were all great and the patio was lovey and very relaxing. The whole place had a great, chill atmosphere. The variety of beers they brew was surprising to me for such a new brewery. From British bitters to German bocks and kolsches to Irish stouts and NA sours, they had a very ambitious and satisfying selection. My absolute favourite was their dry-hopped IPA as it has a touch of the citrus sour you get from the dry hops mixed in with the Pale Ale malts and blends. So, so good. And they really nailed the kolsch too! Check this place out!

Kaslo was one of the places that Japanese-Canadians were interned during World War II. This small museum has excellent photos and displays showing this sad history, and reminding us of how easy it is to slip into racism and xenophobia.
