The Big Muddy Badlands are a series of badlands in southern Saskatchewan and northern Montana along Big Muddy Creek. They are found in the Big Muddy Valley, a cleft of erosion and sandstone along Big Muddy Creek. The valley is 55 kilometres long, 3.2 kilometres wide and 160 metres deep. The valley was formed when it was part of an ancient glacial meltwater channel that carried great quantities of water southeastward during the last ice age. In the nineteenth and early twentieth century the Badlands formed the northern end of the Outlaw Trail, a series of trails and stopping areas utilized by outlaws in the American West spanning from Canada to Mexico. Outlaws such as Dutch Henry and his brother Coyote Pete, Sam Kelly, the Pigeon Toed Kid, and the notorious Sundance Kid turned up in the are...

Touring The Big Muddy Badlands

The Big Muddy Badlands are filled with stunning landscapes and rich history.I recently spent an entire day discovering the best way of exploring it all - joining a Badlands Tour hosted by Coronach Tourism. From a twenty metre wide ceremonial circle to the caves once used by notorious outlaws like Sam Kelly, the tour takes you places typically inaccessible to the public and allows you to explore freely.

The tours begin in the town of Coronach and the onslaught of knowledge begins right away and doesn’t stop. For example, did you know that the town was named after the winning horse in the 1926 Epsom Downs Derby in London, England? You travel between points of interest by vehicle and there’s a nifty radio system that allows all vehicles to hear the tour guide through an FM frequency. If you choose the “long tour” you’ll be spending all day out and about, so be sure to pack and lunch and have a full tank of gas before departing.

If you're interested in joining one of these fun tours, visit Coronach's website:

Saskatchewan Road trip!

Hello everyone! Welcome to my new Youtube channel, Canadiana!

I thought I would start off with a video showing my beautiful home Saskatchewan. This was a trip my family took this summer to the badlands. We drove through the southern part of the province, stopping in Rouleau, Ogema, Coronach, and Castle Butte. It was such a great adventure and I highly recommend it to anyone. It was so fun for me to see a new and different geographical side of Saskatchewan that I didn't even know existed.

CYOPro aboard the M.S. Kenora - Lake of the Woods, Ontario, Canada - June 2012 (Final)

Absolutely breathtaking and stunning views of the islands on Lake of the Woods, Kenora, Ontario from vantage points aboard the M.S. Kenora. There's so much more to Kenora, a city in northwest Ontario - approx 1900KMs from Toronto - but, clearly, I was drawn to the water. :-) I tagged the vids 1-7, but these (1, 2 and 7) are the best of the lot - until I find a way to edit out the din of the wind. After a while, between photos and videos, I realized I was trying to capture unphotographable beauty! Just go already! :-)
