I kinda like the idea of Calgary - Cypress Hills - Lundbreck Falls - Calgary loop. About 10-hr driving time all in. How much time should I plan spending near Cypress Hills, would you say, guys?
Depends, I'd check to see what is open, too, as it is a weekend type town(Elkwater). There's really only one place you want to stay, and it has a restaurant. For us it was worth driving to the Saskatchewan side, as we went to Fort Walsh, and did a hike around there. Really easy walking, saw a moose. I'm not sure if it is closed for the season? You can either go back to the highway, or drive the road across the top plateau, which was really nice, though you don't want to do it in a nice car, as it's gravel, and some sections are a bit rough. So it really depends what you decide to do. I'd probably stay 2 nights. If I have some time I'll post some pics, but I think I put some in the photo thread last year.
