really guys!  I admitted that I’ve never been to the Last Mountain Lake Wildlife Preserve before… still you trusted me out in front to drive there.  Of course then I would have to take the scenic route…

Tip:  If you are aiming to go to the Visitor Centre of the Last Mountain Lake Wildlife Preserve – go to the town of Simpson on highway #2 in Saskatchewan.  From there it is a short 14km drive east to the “HQ”.

We drove up from Regina via Lumsden, Craven and Strasbourg on highway 11, 99 and 20 (respectively) and ended up at the regional park (for camping) marked as the Last Mountain Lake Regional Park.  You would think I would gotten a hint about this when I read the sign (hint: regional park) …

Chris B rode along with me in my car and I – like the pied piper – led our merry band on a wild goose chase in this neighbourhood.  Ron G said he had the GPS coordinates so we let him lead from there.   Colin W, Shelly R, Gail C, Bill A, Henri L all eventually made it to the HQ of the Last Mountain Lake wildlife preserve but we unfortunately misplaced Bob P and Stephane C.  I hope they decided to go to another part of the preserve – after all, Stephane did tell me he has gone there before.

Somehow, I have the feeling that I will get some ribbing the next time I stand up to lead a photographic excursion…

Anyway, some of my images from the leader of the lost….
