For those who haven't been to Saskatchewan you will still appreciate this film by TSN.
Our family had the opportunity to live in Southern Saskatchewan for one year in Frontier, just a hop skip and jump to the Montana Border.
At the time we moved from Vernon, British Columbia for work as my trade back then was a draftsman.
My job consisted of producing mechanical plans for farm implements, such as cultivators for the Friggstad company.
The Honeybees now own this massive 100,000 sq ft industrial warehouse. Honey Bee Manufacturing Ltd. is a family owned business that was incorporated in 1979 by brothers Greg and Glenn Honey and their wives.
Back then I had the opportunity to be able to sit in the prototype Honey Bee Tractor. This massive friendly beast of a machine was like climbing 3 stories of a building. Inside it had all the luxuries you could think of including air-conditioning. We were one of the few to sign their log book.
Our family Jim & Pearl McILveen lived on a large farm just east of Frontier.
Coming from B.C. living in Saskatchewan really opened my eyes to what is actually out on the prairies.
I was surprised to see the abundance of wildlife with herds of deer and antelope with a count of over 75 to just one herd. It was a normal occurrence to come up on the back-roads to see the dirt road filled with wildlife. You had no choice but to stop and admire the view. Of course we didn't mind relishing the time and count how many in each herd.

For stargazers Saskatchewan is a cosmic paradise with the only light of night being the stars and the full moon. The milky way would stretch across the open sky as crisp and clear as any 3D Movie.
You have first class seats to experience natures wonderment including the Northern Lights where they even have summer Star Parties in Cypress Hills.
The next impressive spot to visit in Southern Saskatchewan is the Cypress Hills Inter-provincial Park along with Fort Walsh. A lush green mountainous forest in the middle of nowhere. A geological phenomenon stretching an area of 965 sq miles with the highest point at 1468 m above sea level (4816 ft) in comparison to the Rocky Mountains of 4401 m.
Cypress Hills is an isolated gem of mountainous region soaring a good 2000 ft above the surrounding area.
