This cache is part of a series called the “Prairie Storms Adventure Trail” developed by Living Skies 2014 MEGA Event volunteers. Enjoy the hidden secrets of Southern Saskatchewan by getting off the beaten trail to sites seldom visited, scenic views, historic sites and buildings. The name also pays tribute to the Alberta's “Prairie Winds Adventure Trail” which was created for the Best of the Bad (WestCan 1) MEGA event in 2011.
This series will also take you along the Red Coat Trail, which is a 1,300 km route through southern Manitoba, Saskatchewan and Alberta taken in 1874 by the North-West Mounted Police in their quest to bring law and order to the Canadian West. In Saskatchewan, Highway 13 is designated as Red Coat Trail.
What a better place than this to see a scenic vista of Southern Saskatchewan. This knoll can be seen for miles around and is one of the highest elevations in the area. Take the time to stroll to the top to see the gentle flowing land of Saskatchewan. From this vantage point one will see the flowing grain fields, grassy plains, and watering holes. Mule deer are abundant in the area so one should be able to spot one. Antelope may also be present along with many prairie birds.
