In Revelstoke, we are proud to live, work, and adventure on the homelands of the Sinixt, and the territories of the Secwépemc, the Syilx, and the Ktunaxa Peoples.
We encourage visitors and residents to explore the following resources and to take time to reflect on the painful history of Canada’s First Nations Peoples.

BC Interior Forestry Museum
We work to record, preserve, restore, and display artifacts and collections of historical, archaeological, artistic, educational, and scientific material as it pertains to the forestry industry of British Columbia. Explore the museum (open seasonally) and the Riverside Forest Walk (open year-round).
