Cypress Hills Provincial Park
July 17 and July 18
On our travels we met several people from Medicine Hat. When asked what we should see in the area the response was always Cypress Hills Provincial Park, which is about an hour south west of Medicine Hat. As it was on our way, we stopped to see if we could get a site. We could, so we decided to stay for 2 nights much to the delight of Zaph as there was a lake just made for swimming. The park is quite large with much of the activity centered around the "town site" and lake though there are several other lakes and campgrounds in the park.
The world's tallest TeePee in Medicine Hat
One of the "hills" of Cypress Hills.
A wild sunflower (I think)
Some of Alberta's wild roses.
One of the lakes --- Zaph said the lake was fine for swimming.
