See Saskatchewan as you have never seen it before. With 145 stunning color photographs and informative commentary, award-winning writers and photographers Robin and Arlene Karpan take you on a visual journey through Saskatchewan, from the deep south to the far north, to where the beauty of nature takes centre stage. Saskatchewan Scenic Secrets brings to life a landscape rife with superlatives – some of the largest tracts of uncultivated grasslands left on the Great Plains, the largest sand dunes in Canada, wetlands of international significance, northern lakelands that inspired the writings of Grey Owl, and wild pristine rivers where no signs of "civilization" intrude on a wilderness lost to most of the world. Saskatchewan is arid badlands where eroded buttes and stone-capped hoodoos stand guard over stark valleys of austere beauty, but it is also lush green valleys and secluded sanctuaries where moist carpets of ferns thrive under a forest canopy. No one landscape typifies Saskatchewan. Indeed, the Saskatchewan landscape is best defined by its incredible diversity.
