  • Saskatchewan Deep in the Million Acre Woods: Prince Albert National Park
    Saskatchewan Deep in the Million Acre Woods: Prince Albert National Park September 4-9, 2020 Theme Discover a million-acre park, where vast prairies meet parkland and boreal forest. This is where free-roaming plains bison mingle among a diverse collection of wildlife that include timber wolves, elk, moose and bears. This is where over 200 recorded species of birds reside. Description “We must remember that in the end nature does not belong to us, we belong to it.” ― Grey Owl Saskatchewan invites you to discover what is at the heart of our province, Prince Albert National Park. Since his celebrated books were penned, Grey Owl’s wilderness playground has grown up. Waskesiu, a lakeside resort, is now a beehive of activity in the summer months. Campgrounds and resort accommodations now provide modern comforts to those who seek wilderness experiences without having to rough it. Still, nature remains at the heart of why people come here and the park’s reason for being has not been forgotten. Participants will explore on land and water, all that this beautiful national park has to offer, while also enjoying some of the creature comforts it offers. A trip to Grey Owl’s cabin and final resting place is a once-in-a- lifetime opportunity. With over 150 kilometres of hiking trails, this is one of the best ways to discover the park’s spectacular flora and fauna. On our return to Saskatoon, we will dive into Indigenous history with a visit to Wanuskewin, a meeting place for Indigenous people for over 6000 years.

  • York Mills/Hoggs Hollow – Jane's Walk
    YORK MILLS/HOGGS HOLLOW (JANE JACOBS’ WALK - 2011) (Notes from the comments made by Glenn Bonnetta) The Miller Tavern is one of the few remaining commercial buildings on its original site on Yonge Street. It has been here for over 150 years. For many years it was known as the York Mills Hotel. It was not the first hotel in the valley. Madam Valliere’s Inn was mentioned during the War of 1812 and was probably on Old Yonge Street, north of the bridge over the Don River. Other proprietors probably later took over this inn. When Yonge Street was constructed in the 1790s, the sides of the valley were deemed too steep, so it skirted around the edge of the east side of the valley. Yonge Street was straightened between 1833 and 1835, and the old inn was no longer conveniently located. The first hotel on “new” Yonge Street was built in 1836 by James Hogg, a local miller, on his property. He established a post office at the hotel, and named the area York Mills. It had previously been known as Heron’s Bridge and Milford. A store was built to the north of the inn. The new inn became a good stopping place for farmers going to and from Toronto. After Hogg’s death in 1839 it was known as Anderson’s Tavern. The inn and store burned down in 1856. Locals saved the stables, which were on the west side of Yonge Street. A new inn and store were built by John and William Hogg, sons of James Hogg.
