A community filled with history and unique people. We are an inviting community where newcomers are welcome to experience the quiet rural life here in the mountains of the East Kootenays.
The community is situated along the Moyie River, and includes the historically charged communities of Ryan, Curzon, Glenlily, Goatfell, Yahk and Kingsgate.
A beautiful drive in the peaceful shadow of the local mountains, meadows, and the Moyie River.
