Road Trip 2018 – Day 10 – Athabasca to High Prairie
Ok, so I have some catching up to do in regard to the blog.
This is a photo of downtown Athabasca. The park area is directly across from the main street and is a very nice place to stop and have a break from your drive. I spent the morning today at the Athabasca Golf Course.
This is a beautiful course, and I am glad to have taken the time to enjoy the course. My game could always improve but the scenery here takes your mind off of those shots that went off into the rough.
Next up my stops were along Lesser Slave Lake including the Town of Slave Lake and the Villages that are along the south short of the lake. Here you will find many resorts happy to make room for you whether you want to park a camper or a boat. A sampling of the resorts in the area are Big Fish Bay Resort in Slave Lake, Spruce Point Park on the south side of the lake, Bay Shore Resort at Faust and also Shaw’s Point which is around on the northwest corner of the lake and is a large resort including boat rentals, a restaurant and lots of camping spots.
I landed for the night at High Prairie. There are two campgrounds in High Prairie, one just on the edge of town as you come in from the east and one by the rodeo ground on the north side of town.
