ERICKSON



ERICKSON
Is a small unincorporated community located just 4 kilometers east of downtown Creston and in a wide, fertile valley.

Named after E.G. Erickson, a superintendent of the Canadian Pacific Railway at Cranbrook for 4 years from 1904 to 1908.

Because of the surrounding valley’s continental climate where the community is located in, Erickson has a number of fruit stands that line Highway #3 and because of this agriculture is a suitable economic activity here.

 Erickson’s population: 456
