The Daily Snap – June 23
©Darwin Wiggett - Canon G11
On June 18 as part of our Extreme Saskatchewan tour we decided to have lunch in Maple Creek Saskatchewan. When we finished lunch this was the scene that greeted us! That is my vehicle in the foreground. We quickly moved the cars, took a few shots but in a few minutes the street turned into a fast rising river and flooded the town. We got out of town just in time. To see more shots from one of our participants go here.

That was a very surreal sight, especially walking out of the great lunch the group just had at The Star. I remember looking at the water rushing down the road thinking, this can’t be right!

Wow! Seems that your Extreme Saskatchewan was a little more extreme that you expected, eh? 😉
