Points of Interest
HEAD SMASHED IN BUFFALO JUMP
Head-Smashed-In
Buffalo Jump bears witness to a custom practiced
by native people of the North American plains for nearly 6000
years. Head-Smashed-In Buffalo Jump is known around the
world as a remarkable testimony of prehistoric life.
In 1981, the United Nations Educational Scientific and
Cultural Organization (UNESCO) designated the jump as
a World Heritage Site placing it among other world attractions
such as the Egyptian pyramids, Stonehenge and the Galapagos Islands.
SPRUCE MEADOWS
Just 20 minutes from
the Homeplace Ranch, this picturesque complex has captivated
the worldwide audience of the sport of show jumping. Spruce
Meadows was Ranked #1 in the world in 2002/2003 and 2004/2005.
Spruce Meadows' tournaments have attracted virtually every
Olympic, World, European, and National Show Jumping Champion.
BANFF NATIONAL PARK
In the fall of 1883, three Canadian
Pacific Railway construction workers stumbled across a cave
containing hot springs on the eastern slopes of Alberta's Rocky
Mountains. From that humble beginning was born Banff
National Park, Canada's first national park and the world's
third. Spanning 6, 641 square kilometres (2,564 square miles)
of valleys, mountains, glaciers, forests, meadows and rivers,
Banff National Park is one of the world's premier destination
spots.
