click to get a larger map We drove about 6 hours early Saturday morning to get to Rosebery Campground, on the shores of Wilson Creek just outside of New Denver. (Click on the map; Rosebery is on Hwy #6 between Nakusp and Castlegar.) We visited Slocan, an old "ghost town" (or rather the remains of an old ghost town) from BC's silver rush (late 1800's), and we also saw parts of the last remaining Japanese-Canadian internment camp from the 1940's during WWII.

On Sunday afternoon, we followed the dirt access road to go see Kokanee Glacier. However, I managed to get the car stuck in the mud (image #1, image #2) near KM 11. We never did make it to the parking lot at KM 14. I think it took us almost 2 hours to get out of the mud...
