The Cypress Hills rise up about 600m above the prairie, with lodgepole pine trees and a.o. deer, elk, moose and cougars. A good destination for our last trip of this year! Monday September 21 Nico came out of nightshift this day, so he still had to sleep for half a day before we could head [...]

motorhoming! – Moose Mountain Provincial Park (Kenosee Lake, SK)

Last week Thursday night we left after Nico got home from work.

It was a simple campground, [...]
