Moving Beaton School, 1968

Black-and-white photograph of a small brick building being pulled by a snowplough across a dirt road. The building hangs slightly over the side of a cliff. Snow is on the ground, and trees are on either side of the road.

Revelstoke Museum and Archives photo 12455.

The Beaton School was moved 17 km from Beaton to Trout Lake in 1968. The trip was a treacherous one over a narrow winding road. The building is still in use as the Trout Lake community hall.
