Three days backpacking through Canada's Grasslands National Park. Leah and I trek through one of the more unique landscapes we've ever had the pleasure of visiting. Expansive plains of golden grasses, foreboding badlands and wind buffeted hills had us captivated with every step we took further into the interior. On this adventure we embark on the Valley of 1000 Devils trail to camp out in the badlands. Then we take the backcountry loop road over to Otter Basin where we bushwhack to an escarpment and set up camp at the edge of the world.

Finally, someone showcasing Saskatchewan. Indeed it's not flat. Go north to Prince Albert, Gateway to the North. Prince Albert National Park is awesome.

Really enjoyed this video guys. One of the many hidden gems in Canada. I think if more people visited this park instead of driving though Saskatchewan on the transcanada they would have a new appreciation for that beautiful province. We haven’t done the trail in the west park but after watching this we’ll have to go back there and complete that trail. Awesome work as always.

@@ExploreTheBackcountry Strange but good seeing you guys entirely on dry land. Great sunsets and you’ve got to love that prairie country, an ocean of grass. If you ever get to New Zealand (my home) you should do the Tongariro crossing around three volcanoes on our alpine desert plateau I’m sure you’d appreciate it. Thanks for the upload.

Nice seeing my backyard on youtube! Whenever I hike out, I don't usually look at the prairies though. (Seen enough to last a lifetime!) My favorite thing to do is to look up at the stars as Grasslands National is one of Canada's designated Sky Sanctuaries.

Just kicker you two are out exploring a little of the prairies, enjoying it too! Far too many people under rate and under estimate the beauty of the prairies. They cannot be compared to anything else, like you can't compare two sports...football and hockey are both awesome, but uncomparable. As a backpacker myself, I have to ask...how do you like it? Thanks for sharing your Dash!!! - Davey.

@@ExploreTheBackcountry you two did a wonderful job documenting and showing the beautiful prairie landscape. Saskatchewan has so much variety to offer outdoors people and relatively easy access to most south of Prince Albert. Northern Saskatchewan is a real Gem, such a vast amount of options and obviously memorable scenery as well. ( I was fortunate to grow up on the Prairie but have a few cabins in some of Saskatchewan's varying and beautiful landscape including the north) But because of that, Southern Sask often doesn't get the love it deserves and you two did it justice ❤️, thank you. Would love to see you back!

Gotta say, I’m a little disappointed you didn’t portage a canoe through this. 😀 Seriously, I was just telling the gf, that I finally got to go real wild camping for two nights, that one place I’d love to go is the grass lands park. Maybe I’ll show her this.
@ExploreTheBackcountry
