  • The Cariboo Wagon Road
    THE CARIBOO WAGON ROAD he success of the Cariboo goldfields necessitated the further Timprovement of the roads to the Cariboo. In May 1862, Colonel Richard C. Moody advised Governor James Douglas that the Yale to Cariboo route through the Fraser Canyon was the best to adapt for the general development of the country and that it was imperative its construction start at once. The governor concurred and it was decided that the road would be a full 18-feet wide in order to accommodate wagons going and coming from the goldfields and thus it came to be known as the Cariboo Wagon Road. The builders were to be paid large cash subsidies as work progressed and upon completion of their sections were to be granted permission to collect tolls from the travelers for the following 5 years. Captain John Marshall Grant of the Royal Engineers, with a force of sappers, miners, and civilian labor, was to construct the first six miles out of Yale, while Thomas Spence was to extend the road the next seven miles to Chapman’s Bar, at a cost of $47,000. From here, Joseph William Trutch, Spence’s partner, was to tackle the section to a point that would become Boston Bar, a distance of 12 miles, at a cost of $75,000. From here, Spence would continue the road to Lytton. Walter Moberly, a successful engineer, with Charles Oppenheimer, a partner in the great mercantile firm ROYAL ENGINEER'S BUCKLE & BUTTONS. COURTESY WERNER KASCHEL of Oppenheimer Brothers, and Thomas B. Lewis accepted the challenge to build the section from Lytton until the road joined a junction with the wagon road to be built by Gustavus Blin Wright and John Colin Calbreath from Lillooet to Watson’s stopping house.

  • Investment Package
    Hello!! Castlegar’s location squarely in the middle of Vancouver and Calgary has produced today’s investment opportunity. Castlegar’s competitive advantage lies in its central location, low business costs/cost of living, and outdoor lifestyle. The West Kootenay has a distinct cultural flavour and warmth of humanity that will bring a quick smile to your face… and a lingering feeling of contentment. Lifestyle is not urban rush, but a relaxed mix of outdoor rugged and urban cool. There is a creative undertow to the human tide. Business is important, but the lifestyle dog still wags the business tail. Situated midway between Vancouver and Calgary, the West Kootenay has received less Vancouver/Calgary region investment than the Okanagan and the East Kootenay. This creates a business opportunity and an affordable cost of living that supports the notion that entrepreneurs can both balance the books and balance life. Castlegar’s economic base is stable and diversified (forestry, mining, hydro, government services, retail, tourism). Business conditions are dynamic and affordable. The City is big enough to support full services. But Castlegar knows it can do more and its service centre vision is ambitious. Diversification has two key thrusts: commercial and light industry anchors (we affectionately call this the ‘Big Kahuna Strategy’), and independent entrepreneurs (we affectionately call this the ‘Dilbert Escape’ strategy). www.castlegar.ca happily ever after MAYOR’S LETTER Welcome to Castlegar and the West Kootenay. Having been born and raised in the Castlegar area, it’s easy for me to extol the virtues of Castlegar living. I would prefer to tell you about Castlegar through the eyes of newcomers and Valley explorers I talk to – those who see our culture and geography as tourists, or potential future residents and/or investors.
