It was a wet year and we didn’t see many hot days, but the views were still wonderful, the hikes amazing, and the camping always fun.  Here are some of our favorite summer adventures in David Thompson Country for 2019.

  1. Whitewater Rafting with Hunter Valley Adventures on the Red Deer River in the southern end of Clearwater County.

2.  The view of Rosie’s Delight downhill trail at Baseline Mountain with the Baseline Mountain Biking Club.

Crossing the Bighorn River on a trail ride with Western Wilderness Adventures near Nordegg. Exploring David Thompson Country on horseback is such an energizing, wondrous and peaceful experience. Everyone should try it at least once. . Bighorn River flows from the Rockies into the North Saskatchewan River after the Bighorn Dam on Abraham Lake. It is west of Nordegg, in Clearwater County, part of the David Thompson Country Tourism Region. . . . #WesternWildernessAdventures #Nordegg #bighornriver #DTCountry #ClearwaterCnty #Nordegg #trailride #horseback #horses #albertahorses #dailyviewalberta #albertaadventures #yegadventures #yycadventures #albertatourism #discoveralberta #getoutside #albertaviews #explorealberta #explorecentralAlberta #travelalberta #alberta.canada #visitcentralalberta
