The Outlaw Trail

Butch Cassidy and the Sundance Kid in Saskatchewan?  Well it is possible, since Saskatchewan is just north of Montana and would be a great place to hid out from the US lawmen.  I was sold, if I ever got the chance I was going to Coronach Saskatchewan and to Station No. 1 on The Outlaw Trail.
My chance came when my wife Julie and I were deciding on a holiday, something that we had not done in 6 years.  Julie wanted to visit some relatives in Strasbourg and I wanted to photograph The Big Muddy and in particular Castle Butte area.  With the GPS set, we were headed to Coronach and then north to Strasbourg, on a great adventure together.
That GPS took us down a lot of roads less traveled by and as long as we had plenty of gas I was okay with that.  We stayed at motels and ate on the road, good times.
We got to Coronach late on our second day and spent the night there.  In the morning, after eating at a local restaurant and getting directions to Castle Butte, we headed out.  We were going without a tour or tour guide so the chance of us seeing the actual Jim Kelly Caves (where Butch Cassidy and the Sundance Kid will have stayed when holed up there) was not going to happen, but I was okay with that I just wanted to see the area and Castle Butte.  When we came into The Big Muddy Valley it was like we were in New Mexico, it was beautiful my dream come true.  I love this country and went crazy with my camera.  Julie who had brought along Tamera's (our daughter) point and shoot camera also enjoy getting into the whole photography thing.  I am not sure how long we spent there but eventually the rains came and we packed up and slowly made our way out of the valley. and north to Regina then up to Strasbourg.  I will never forget the day that Julie and I spent in The Big Muddy Valley, and I hope that we can return one day.
