SUMMARY:Calgary Walk: West Nose Creek / Confluence Park\, NW
DESCRIPTION:Description:\nWe’ll follow the pathways alongside the creek meanders through multiple curves in the valley bottom. The valley where we’ll walk was forged by runoff from the last glaciation and is therefore considerably younger than the Bow and Elbow river valleys.

We will check see “Split Rock”\, the most famous glacial erratic in Calgary\, along the north bank. The erratic was once part of Mount Edith Cavell in Jasper National Park. \nWant to join us?\nScroll down to the bottom for the options \nMeet Place:\nThe official parking lot for West Nose Creek / Confluence Park at the intersection of Beddington Blvd. and Beddington Trail\, NW \nBathroom:\nYes \nPost-Walk Coffee Stop (Optional):\nTBA

SUMMARY:Horsethief Canyon Badlands with paleonologist & Last Chance Saloon\, Drumheller
DESCRIPTION:Description:\nHorsethief Canyon is the rarely marvelled gem in this prehistoric playground. It’s a 10-kilometre jaunt up quiet Highway 838 (the North Dinosaur Trail)\, northwest of the region’s Royal Tyrrell Museum. A descent in the canyon leads us into the land of strange outcrops of rock that are a kaleidoscope of geology and history\, a mingling of dinosaurs and prehistoric animals. The confluence of factors here unveil a landscape found in only a few places on Earth – and rarely so close to a large city. The canyon is T-shaped\, running roughly half a kilometre by one kilometre out to the wider Red Deer River Valley (cut from the land when the last ice age ended about 10\,000 years ago)\, terrain that can occupy most of an afternoon in the absence of officially marked trails. Here you can look in on the last years of the Cretaceous Period\, 70 million years ago\, the end of the age of dinosaurs. Among the notable specimens uncovered in the Horsethief is a horned dinosaur with a thick nose named Pachyrhinosaurus canadensis. \nAnd optional return route through Wayne\, Alberta to visit the Last Chance Saloon is also part of the plan\, They serve food so if you are keen to stay for the food\, plan that into your day. They close at 7 pm. \nRegistration & Fees:\nWant to join us?
