Are you ready to have an active vacation in Saskatchewan? You’re on vacation so you will probably want to know some ways to entertain your family. You will have a blast going hiking, biking, fishing, hunting, camping, canoeing, snowmobiling, horseback riding, golfing, and curling. Curling is when you try to get a stone into the house (a house is a target) by having someone hit the stone and have the stone slide down ice wile it is being swept by to brooms on either of it. When you’re done with these activities make sure to take a dip in a nearby lake or pond. Now your family will never want to leave the land of the living skies.

**Nature and wildlife ** Do you like strolling in the woods on a beautiful fall day watching all the animals in action? In Saskatchewan there are many forests for hiking and bird watching. You’ll find many animals on you’re hikes such as the Canada lynx, artic foxes, bison, fishers, moose, flying squirrels, bald eagles, blue jays, great blue heron, and Canada geese. In outdoors you will have exciting things to do that will keep you and your family on your feet. **Climate **

Do you like to go skiing and sledding? Well Saskatchewan’s climate is very cold and windy in the winter, it can get down to - 40° C. But in the summers it is the complete opposite, it is very hot and dry, it can get up to 110°F. Saskatchewan, fun to ski, sled, and in the summer go swimming.


 * Geography **

Don’t you like to hike and go camping? In Saskatchewan if you go north there is a forest and if you go south there are grasslands. But if you want to go central there is parkland. Camping and hiking, sounds like fun to me.
