On Our Way North and West

June 18 through 20, 2022

We left Okotoks after breakfast at Denny’s, heading north and went west of Edmonton through the prairies – long straight roads and beautiful scenery.

Our next campground was another Lions Club in Whitecourt, Alberta where we spent two nights.

Doug and Dee played golf at Whitecourt Golf and Country Club.

The town of Whitecourt has a very nice museum with a collection of farm implements, buildings, and memorabilia from the local area.

We hiked Hard Luck Canyon near Whitecourt. There are signs indicating how you are walking back in time.

As we left Whitecourt on Monday, June 20, we crossed the Athabaska River, downstream from where we had camped in Jasper Park. The rivers flow north around here.

The warning signs get more creative, but we saw just one deer. The farmland is beautiful, however.

After traversing many miles of construction we reached Good Sam Camp Tamarack RV Park south of Grande Prairie. There was so much construction we never went into that town at all.
