The
Village:
"Salmo is a village in the West Kootenay region of southeastern
British Columbia, Canada. It is located in the Salmo River Valley, surrounded by
the Selkirk Mountain range. Originally known as Salmon Siding (named for the
original name of the Salmo River, i.e. the Salmon River), the village was
founded as a small mining town near the Nelson and Fort Sheppard Railway during
a gold rush in 1896. The name of the town was changed to Salmo to avoid
confusion with other places with similar names. When dams were created along the
Columbia River in the 1960s and 1970s, Salmo's fish stocks were depleted. It has
1,007 inhabitants." - from Wikipedia:
