CODY was a SILVER mining settlement 13 km east of NEW DENVER between SLOCAN and KOOTENAY lakes near SANDON. Founded by Henry Cody and the Noble Five MINING Co, it was the terminus of the KASLO & SLOCAN RWY and site of a concentrator mill. Cody had 150 residents, 3 hotels, 3 laundries, a livery and blacksmith shop, and a dressmaker in 1897, but was abandoned by the early 1900s. A few ruins can still be seen.
