A nice history of the collaboration. I know a lot of people here have a disdain for anything American, but I think it is important to remember that we are neighbors and we share a lot.

One thing we share just happens to be some of the most beautiful country on the face of the planet...and both nations have taken the necessary steps to preserve it for future generations of Americans and Canadians to marvel at.

Under rated area. It's been like 25 years since I was down there. I'll have to make the trip again here in the near future. I was really young but remember the scenery to this day.

Apparently my dad and a couple of his brothers went down there way back in like the 60's because his one brother had heard stories of lots of women there. Well apparently the woman thing was true but it snowed that weekend so they decided to drive down to Kallispell where it might be warmer. Upon getting there he was granted late entry into a golf tournament at Buffalo Hills and proceeded to return there every year to play in that tourney for another 25 years.

My family owns a cabin in Waterton. We spend at least a week there every summer.

Amazing scenery and a lot more things to do there than people realize.

Of course you have to enjoy the outdoors to appreciate most of it.
