- Location description
- Wide and rather shallow (very low this year) river location with sandy banks, large river rocks and well vegetated shores. Clear water and many km from any settlement - other than the national historic park Batoche site just upstream and across the river. Saskatoon to this location via canoe is a two day trip. Quiet, scenic, river clams, frogs, black bears, bald eagles, franklin gulls and a few American white pelicans. Accessible via an old cattle trail (ugh hopefully not many of them on the river anymore).
