More Nights at Big Stone, AB

We just paid for 2 more nights.  The price is decent, it's peaceful, the weather is great and we have power, water AND wifi.  Perfect!

Big Stone - name of the community

Yesterday we drove around the reservoir and checked out all the dry camping spots.  It really is a perfect set up for fisherman.  There are pull offs all along the water's edge.  However, the word is that they are not catching much this time of year. There are plenty of pelicans so maybe they are cleaning up!? Our neighbours did come home with one small trout yesterday.

We were quite surprised to find out that this campground is not run by 'Indians' nor is it on Native land.  It is one of the provinces "Special Areas" and is in fact managed by the Armstrongs.  The dam was built in 1965 by the PFRA. According to legend, there was a native attack at the creek in 1840 and the creek literally ran red from the slain Blackfeet.  Hence - Blood Indian Creek.

We've been treated to some awesome sunsets.





We are a little undecided as to where to go next. The weather forecast looking a little cooler all over, so it's difficult to come up with a plan!
