#2 - Fort Selkirk, an old trading post that is still mostly only accessible by river.

The current fort dates back to 1892, a previous one to 1852, and has been a gathering place for First Nations for over 8000 years.

The Selkirk First Nation manage the site, including the campground, and are working on preserving and restoring many of the buildings.

Visitors can explore the buildings freely, restored or not. It's amazing!

Johnson has been #homeless since June 2023. The family lived in a teepee, camped at powwows, couch-surfed & spent a month at a #Surrey homeless shelter before granted temporary funding to stay at a hotel through #JordansPrinciple — federal funding co-ordinated by #Indigenous Services #Canada.

Johnson is #Indigenous, from #Tsartlip Village, #Okanagan, Northern #Dene, #Han & Northern #Tutchone & Wolf Clan.

She has been on the #BCHousing #WaitList for nearly 5 years.
