This
community, idyllically set on the northeastern shore of Slocan
Lake, appears to be a sleepy mountain town. But don't be deceived.
New Denver is a busy center for hikers, anglers, boaters, skiers,
snowmobilers. Back in the 1890's was to be called El Dorado, but
did not ever produce gold. It did however have silver, lead and
zinc.
