The  Wonders of Saskatchewan

Sitting on over 227,000 square miles of forest and grasslands, the Canadian province of Saskatchewan is the
only one to have no natural boundaries and is also landlocked. With just over 1 million people, almost one
quarter of these living in Saskatoon, the largest city and almost another quarter living in the capital of
Regina, the province received its name from the Cree Indians who called it kisiskaciwani-sipiy, or the swift
flowing river. In the north, the Lake Athabasca Sand Dunes, biggest active sand dunes above the 58th parallel
in the world sit amidst the forested land. In the south, where the grasslands are, are the Great Sand Hills, the Killdeer Badlands and the Cypress Hills; which are part of the Grasslands National Park system.
The province was originally home to many various Indian nations among them: Sioux, Cree, Algonquin, Athabaskan, Saulteaux and Astina, with the first European Henry Kelsey in 1690 coming up the Saskatchewan River to trade furs. Hudson Bay Company set up shop at the Cumberland House in 1774. Scientific exploration was done in the mid 1800s in the prairie area of the province. The Canadian government started the North-West territories to take care of the huge area of land between British Columbia and Manitoba. This helped initiate treaties with the First Nations as the Indian nations were referred to.

The Canadian Pacific Railroad was built during the 1880s, which helped the land populate. The Dominion Land Survey divided the land into parcels and gave it away to anyone willing to settle there. After the battle of Little Big Horn, Sitting Bull and many thousands of his nation escaped to Wood Mountain, in 1876. In 1885, the North West Mounted Police built many forts and posts in the Saskatchewan area; Fort Walsh in Cypress Hills and Wood Mountain Post in the middle of the province near the American border.
Saskatchewan began a Canadian province in 1905. With the passage of the Homestead Act, immigrants were given a quarter square mile area to farm and settle, with another quarter when it had been done. Although they were miles from any size town, the frontier life difficult and the great hardships of building a home and farm, a successful farming community was begun and flourished. The first yearly Canadian Western Agribition was started in Regina in 1970 and is one of the best livestock show in North America.

The province produces about 45% of Canada's grains, including; barley, lentils, canola, wheat, oats, peas, rye, flax and canary seed. It is also involved in hunting, fishing and forestry, but agriculture remains the biggest. It is a large grower of beef cows, with Alberta being the only province to out produce it. Over the decades, it has become a leading exporter of uranium and potash; helping the mining industry grow. Oil and natural gas is produced and adds to the overall economy.

Saskatchewan Tours

One of the most sensational tours available to visitors is the trip to the Athabsca Sand Dunes in northern Saskatchewan. These tours are so spectacular that there are referred to as expeditions. Completely planned and outfitted, you will travel either by plane or 4 wheel vehicle. Home to plant species found no where else in the world, this area is the authentic wilderness and there are no nearby towns or communities. Described as primeval, you will look for elements or remains of the original Athabascan tribes and roam the desert like landscapes. Park regulations allow for only paddling or hiking around the park. One tour does involve the use of canoes on the Carswell and William Rivers heading into the Thompson Bay/William River region. Some of these fantastic dunes are over 200 feet high and will mesmerize you into dreamlike states. It is one of the most exciting tours we have seen offered over the years.

Another very exciting tour involves horseback riding and hiking to follow the migration of grisly bears following the disappearing snowline as summer appears. You will watch the grizzlies as they mate after a week long courtship, graze in open meadows, and rub on trees. It is a special sight with excitement every step of the way whether riding or hiking. Or if you would prefer doing a bit of work, you can thrill to the old west by helping a working ranch in the hills of Qu-Apelle Valley. A rather unique and unusual tour is offered in Louis Riel Trail, Saskatchewan; the chance to visit an authentic working Hutterite colony. Called the Arm River Hutterite Colony, these friendly, hospitable Christians live in a communal environment that is quite different than many others. Formed over a thousand years ago by Jacob Hutter, they believe in the original practice of community living started by the disciples after Christ's death and resurrection. This is a relaxing informal gathering that allows you to watch and sometimes participate in the work and creation of the truly remarkable people.
At the Chaplin Western Hemisphere Shorebird Reserve, over 30 kinds of birds, many on the endangered list visit the lake; which is the second biggest saline body of water in Canada, spread across 15,000 acres.
