West Kootenay Delegates Endure Flooded Return Trip
Rossland and Trail delegates to the Associated Boards of Trade meeting at Cranbrook faced a rain driven flood on the return journey. Motorists battled rising streams, a washed out bridge, and a dam break near Yahk as locals and Indians aided crossings, with several vehicles rescued to Yahk and Cranbrook by early morning.
