Phoenix, British Columbia was once known as Canadaâs highest city â a booming copper mining town with hotels, churches, hockey teams, and thousands of residents.When the mines closed in 1919, Phoenix emptied almost overnight.Most people left.Three men stayed.In this episode of Tracks, Trails & Forgotten Tales, we share the haunting true story of the Three Bachelors of Phoenix BC â Robert âBobâ Denzler, Adolph âForepawâ Sercu, and William Henry Bambury â the final residents of a town that refused to die quietly.From Forepawâs self-appointed role as mayor and lawman of an abandoned city, to Bamburyâs diary describing sinking buildings and rising water, this episode explores what happened after everyone else walked away.Today, Phoenix exists as a flooded open-pit mine, marked only by a cenotaph, cemetery, and scattered remnants of a once-thriving community.This isnât just the story of a ghost town âitâs the story of the people who couldnât let go.đ Tracks, Trails & Forgotten Tales explores the lost places, hidden trails, and real stories of British Columbia â told where history happened.đ Follow the show for more BC ghost towns, mining history, and forgotten places.Stay Curious.

Canadaâs Highest City⌠Gone Almost OvernightHigh above British Columbiaâs Boundary Country, a booming mining city once stood at 4,600 feet. Thousands of people lived here. Trains ran day and night. Copper poured out of the mountain. And then â almost overnight â it was gone.In this episode of Tracks, Trails & Forgotten Tales, we explore the rise of Phoenix â once the highest incorporated city in Canada. Originally known as Greenwood Camp, Phoenix quickly grew into a modern mining city with railways, hotels, churches, schools, a hospital, and a thriving community built on copper.Between 1909 and 1911, Phoenix shipped nearly half of all the crude copper mined in Canada. But after the First World War, falling copper prices and mine closures triggered a rapid and devastating collapse. Families packed up and left, many believing they would return.They never did.Today, all that remains of Phoenix is a First World War cenotaph, two historic graveyards, and a massive open pit carved into the mountain where a bustling city once stood.đ§ This is Part 1 of our two-part series on Phoenix.In Part 2, we tell the powerful story of the three men who stayed behind and lived on in a ghost town long after everyone else had gone.#trackstrailsandtales #exploringdirt #ghosttowns #bchistory #abandonedmines #explorebc #adventurepodcast #phoenixbc#ghosttownsofbc#ghosttown#canadianhistory#bchistory#mininghistory#abandonedplaces#boundarycountry#canadaghosttowns#explorebc#forgottenhistory#historicaldocumentary#canadianmining#lostplaces#trackstrailsandforgottentales #history#historicplaces#ghosttown#historymatters#historypodcast#historic
Power built this town â but at what cost?In this episode of Tracks, Trails & Forgotten Tales, we explore the life and legacy of John Carmichael Haynes, one of the most powerful figures in the early history of Osoyoos and the South Okanagan.Arriving in British Columbia during the gold rush, Haynes rose quickly through the ranks as a constable, customs officer, magistrate, judge, and government agent. He helped establish early border control, enforced colonial law across vast regions, and built what became the largest ranch in the South Okanagan â earning the title âThe Cattle King.âBut Haynesâ story is not a simple pioneer tale.We examine how power, land, and colonial policy shaped the Okanagan, including the displacement of Indigenous peoples, reserve reductions, and the long-term consequences that still echo today. From the rise of cattle ranching as the regionâs first major industry to the dramatic collapse of the Haynes Ranch after his death, this episode looks at the foundations â and the costs â of settlement.This is a story of ambition, authority, and legacy â and why understanding it matters.đ§ New episodes exploring British Columbiaâs hidden history, lost places, and forgotten stories.#trackstrailsandtales #exploringdirt #ghosttowns #bchistory #abandonedmines #explorebc #adventurepodcast#GoldRushEra#CattleRanching#ColonialHistory#IndigenousHistory#ForgottenHistory#TracksTrailsForgottenTales#goldrush#JohnCarmichaelHaynes#OsoyoosHistory#SouthOkanagan#BritishColumbiaHistory#HaynesRanch#CanadianHistory#historic#historicplaces#abandoned#bchistory#goldtrailsandghosttowns#johnhaynes#haynesranch#historylovers#historicplaces#goldrushjudges
Today marks 61 years since one of the most tragic events in Canadian history â the Hope Slide.In the early morning hours of January 9, 1965, Canadaâs largest and most destructive landslide forever changed the landscape near Hope, British Columbia. More importantly, it claimed the lives of four young people: Mary Kalmakoff, Bernie Lloyd Beck, Dennis Arlitt, and Thomas Starchuk.This episode focuses on the human stories behind the tragedy â the people who were travelling that night, the lives lost, and the lasting impact left on families, communities, and the province itself. While the physical scar on the mountainside is still visible today, the personal loss remains the most powerful legacy of the Hope Slide.The death toll could have been far higher if not for Norman Stephanishin, whose actions helped warn others travelling the highway that night, preventing further loss of life.This episode serves as Season 2, Episode 1 of Tracks, Trails & Forgotten Tales and sets the tone for the season ahead â deeply researched British Columbia history, told through the lives of the people who lived it.#hopeslide #hopeslide1965 #canadianhistory #britishcolumbiahistory #canadaslargestlandslide #historictragedy #remembering #inmemory #neverforgotten #hopebc #historypodcast #storytelling #documentary #truehistory #educational #bcstories #canadahistory #trackstrailsandforgottentales #season2

Crumbling walls, missing floors, and decades of exposure have left the Kaleden Hotel in a fragile state. The community is racing against time to preserve whatâs left of this rare piece of Okanagan and BC history.Will Kaledenâs iconic hotel be restored for future generations, or become yet another story told only through photographs and fading memories?
