Lying on both sides of the Milk River, it covers an area of 17.8km and serves to protect one of the most extensive prairie regions within Alberta's park system as well as Native American rock paintings and carvings.

Actually, they're hidden in Edgemont Village at the foot of Grouse Mountain on the North Shore."It's actually worth coming to Canada for these sandwiches alone." -- Michelle Superle, VancouverText by Steve Smith.
