Alberta is Canada's wild west. It's the home of the famous, cowboy-clad Calgary Stampede, but what really makes this province wild are the sky-high mountains that rise seemingly straight out of the high plains. Trout fishermen find nirvana here, and hunters flock to some of the best big game hunting in North America. But no matter what kind of trip you're planning, the spectacular scenery mesmerizes all who come here to fish, hunt, or explore the region that ranges from the stark badlands to the turquoise waters near the continental divide.
