The Huble Homestead
is a living historic site that offers tours of heritage buildings such
as the Huble House, Salmon Valley Post Office, and the Animal Shelter. Visit
replicas of the original General Store, Trapper's Cabin, Barns, Blacksmith
Shop and the First Nations Fish Camp; all aspects of the site represent a
time in our history that the Huble Homestead/Giscome Portage Heritage Society
has proudly preserved on behalf of our community, our heritage, and our history.
Come
by, bring a picnic, enjoy a breathtaking walk of the countryside, or walk
the historic Giscome Portage. Visit our blacksmith to see
demonstrations of the craft of making nails and period implements. Find the perfect
gift at our General Store, stock up on Huble Berry Jam, have lunch, say hello
to our livestock or just lie down in the grass and enjoy the sunshine.
The
history of the Huble Homestead and Giscome Portage can be viewed throughout
this site. Here you'll find historic photographs, biographies, rich history
and culture as you discover the spirit of J.R. Giscome, Al and Annie Huble
and Ed Seebach.
