Hello,
Here are a few pics from our Easter weekend. This great campground is 2.5 hours south east of Calgary, Alberta. We only go to this area in the winter, very busy in the summer and very hot. This is for sure a little unusual for some locals as we are use to seeing highway sighs warning for deer, moose and elk. At Dinosaur Provincial Park there are signs on the roadways to watch for rattle snakes. For our southern American friends you would feel right at home. Snakes and heat!
We always have our telescope with us and one evening we enjoyed a perfect night of star gazing. With all the camping we have done this had to be one of the best.
If you are considering a trip to southern Alberta this is a great place to spend some time. But, this campground books very fast so don't wait!

This is on my list of places to go, but I'm just waiting for the kids to be a bit older... (Something about giant animals with sharp teeth causing tears and terror out of 2 little girls the last time I brought them to the Dinosaur Exhibit in Edmonton when it was in town.)
I remember camping there as a kid several times and I was always amazed at the landscape, cacti, even a few dinosaur bone finds.
nice pics. Not unlike a number of places here in S. California
