It's so cool to see people coming out to adventure in our area. I love Grand Forks. I moved out here from Edmonton 5 years ago and I don't regret it. There's many things to do and see here. Some highlights are: The local museum perched high on the valley which lends information about the unique history of the area including the Doukhabor people (a ethnoreligious group from Russia that moved here) The Yankee Boy Mine - Right outside of town up Hardy Mountain Rd. A KZbinr (Exploring Abandoned Mines) named Frank and his wife bought an abandoned gold mine (last mined in 1937) and live right above it. They've beautifully restored the mine and offer exceptional tours during the summer. Fisherman Creek Falls - A stunning waterfall for such a small creek. There's a trail you can drive up located in Niagra just north of the "Pines Bible Camp" on North Fork Rd. You can drive up to the Trans Canada Trail and park there. From there, you'll see a sign and a small walking path you can hike a short distance to get to the waterfall. On that note: The Trans Canada Trail - A very long section of the old Trans Canada rail network was decommissioned and turned into a hiking, horseback, ATV trail. The trail spans uninterupted from Castlegar to Rock Creek, and does continue in patches across the width of BC if I recall correctly. Some gorgeous views of the North Fork valley are on that trail. I've driven my truck on it from Castlegar to Christina Lake and from Grand Forks to Midway. I highly recommend. Cascade Trestle and Falls - Right close to Grand Forks beside highway 3 but closer to Christina Lake is a breathtaking point on the Kettle River. There's a very high trestle bridge you can walk on with a great view. During the summer, you'll see daredevils jumping from the rocks or off the bridge itself into the river below. If you continue past the bridge on the trail (Trans Canada Trail) heading towards Christina Lake, you will find a small trail to the left that will get you down to the falls which is a large roaring rappid. You can get right down next to it if you want, but of course be very careful! It's extremely dangerous, so use proper discretion. There's plenty more, like free maintained camping spots north of town, the Greenwood smelter stack, the Pheonix cemetery (what's left of the city of Pheonix which used to be larger than Grand Forks), the Rock Candy Mine and more.
