“I learned so much, ate the best food ever. Plus to see bison, elk and the horses up close? Truly blessed.”

Norma GauthierEdmonton

“The canoe trip from Waskatenau to your lodge is peaceful, beautiful, and fairly easy. We saw about 8 bald eagles and a pair of golden eagles. The trip took us 3.5 hours with minimal paddling. Your landing point is easy to find.”
