  • Horse Stables
    Horse Stables For generations trail riding has given visitors the time to get the most from the park’s surroundings which are always scenic and often spectacular with the added benefit of not expending too much of their own energy.1 Being able to rent a horse in the park was and is a decided visitor attraction. Shortly after the end of the First World War, in 1921, the first horse rental operation was opened by L. John Bevan,2 a guide and outfitter with 20 years’ experience in the Rockies.3 He provided customers with everything necessary for their ride or outing. All rates were established by the government and printed or posted as necessary.4 Bevan also guided hunting parties outside the park boundaries at rates that he was free to set according to the services provided. Bevan was 39 years old when he started at Waterton having immigrated from Wales 20 years before.5 He applied for a lease in 1921 in the lower park compound area where he built a five-room log house, stable and storage building.6 Despite having been given good reviews in The Lethbridge Herald and advertising on a regular basis, he soon sold his business to the Morris Brothers in 1924.7 The Morris Brothers, Scott,8 Eugene, Edward and Cliff, operated their business from the same base as had Bevan where they had a cabin, stable and corral.9 Their timing was excellent as the post-war park improvements began coming to fruition. Among the improvements were a public golf Horseback riding in the mountains is a time honored course, one of the first in the region, tradition.

We are inspired by the bravery of our soldiers at Normandy and moved by the words of John McCrae’s "In Flanders Fields." We are amazed at the vision of Louis-Joseph Papineau and Sir Wilfrid Laurier. We are enchanted by the paintings of Emily Carr and the writings of Lucy Maud Montgomery. We look back in awe at the wisdom of Sir John A. Macdonald and Sir George-Étienne Cartier. We are moved to tears of joy by the humour of Stephen Leacock and tears of gratitude for the courage of Tecumseh. We hold in high regard the determination of Emily Murphy and Rev. Josiah Henson to overcome obstacles which stood in the way of their dreams. We give thanks for the work of the Victorian Order of Nurses and those who organ- ized the Underground Railroad. We think of those who suffered and died at Grosse Île in the dream of reaching a new home.
