Visitors to Fort Macleod and district looking for an adventure
find it on the plains near Head-Smashed-In Buffalo Jump.
Tipi camping co-ordinated by the interpretive centre gives people
the chance for an authentic Blackfoot experience that provides
deep insight into First Nations culture.
Visitors help set up the canvas tipis in which they will spend the
night, learn Blackfoot legends, and hear how the Blackfoot lived
off the land. Campers are sheltered, sleeping on air mattresses in
sleeping bags, around the warmth of a wood-burning stove inside
the canvas tipi beneath the breathtaking beauty of a prairie
night.
Visitors can choose from one- and two-night packages that provide
an authentic Blackfoot experience, including campfire
story-telling by a Blackfoot guide, trail walks and participation
in interpretive activities. The packages include all meals. Call
403-553-2731 or visit www.head-smashed-in.com. |
