Medicine Hat to Moose Jaw Saskatchewan

We saw a few interesting things. Frank’s Slide is one. The slide happened in 1903 at 4:10 am where 44 million cubic meters of rock fell, wiping out part of Frank. Over 90 people were killed, and are still buried under the rock. This was the deadliest rock slide in Canada’s history. The pictures show the slide exactly as it was over 100 years ago.

We also saw the world’s tallest Tepee in Medicine Hat Alberta! Saamis Tepee was originally constructed for the Calgary 1988 Winter Olympics. Each of the 10 masts features a large storyboard depicting aspects of native culture and history. The main masts of the tepee measure 215 feet and the diameter is 160 feet, with a foundation weight of 800 metric tons.
