In February, RadioKBPV began a series of Hotel Histories, initiated by the unfortunate fire that decimate the landmark King Edward Hotel. Farley has continued to crank out histories of other local Inns of southwestern- Alberta in the Pincher Creek Echo and the Shootin' the Breeze weekly newspapers. Today, we carry on that series with the Arlington Hotel of Pincher Creek, and the short history of the Beaver Mines Hotel. We’ll begin with Beaver Mines.
