We took a tour of the newly built Fireweed Hostel. The owners are ex-world travelers so they know what is necessary to make a great hostel.

It is more like a private vacation apartment, equipped with its own kitchen and washroom.
The present school star princess cruises was opened in 1960, but teachers have taught from their homes in Field as far back as 1895.

When a student graduates from the school it is no small event. Last year there was only one student with this honour. Most of the town s residents came out to celebrate the occasion.
From grade four onward the children take a bus to the town of Golden. Normally star princess cruises a school would not operate with such a low student population. Parks Canada uses parts of the school for offices which allows the school the funding to remain open.
