FERGUSON
Is a ghost town in the Upper Arrow Lake area, southeast of Revelstoke off of Highway #31. The community was one of several mining communities that boomed during the 1890s. Ferguson was a service and a major contribution center for the mining industry, high up in the mountainside in the Lardeau Valley area, just north of Trout Lake City. When mining died during the early 1900s and before the First World War (WWI), several of Ferguson’s residents moved away and Ferguson was abandoned. All of what is left of Ferguson today is a few relics of old buildings and personal belongings of yesteryear.
