Southeastern Saskatchewan
Except for the rugged, wooded upland of Moose Mountains, the  gently rolling land in this region is almost all farming country. It was  the first part of the province to be settled. Pioneer homesteaders from  eastern Canada, the United States, and Europe brought the plows that  broke the region's fertile soil. Today, this sector of Saskatchewan  contributes to the abundance of wheat and other grains for which the  province is renowned. In mid-August, the fields here and across the  grain belt turn from green to gold, adding a warm glow to the autumn  landscape.
Cannington Manor Provincial Historic Park      
[B6] Guides costumed in Victorian garb tell the story of  English aristocrats who tried to transplant their genteel lifestyle to  this prairie locale in the 1880s. A visitors center features exhibits  about Canning-ton Manor's founder, Capt. Edward Michell Pierce, whose  colony expired shortly after he died in 1886. The site has three  original buildings and four reconstructions, which is filled with  antiques and early farming gear. The grounds once served as a playing  field for cricket matches.
Carlyle [B6] Carlyle Rusty Relics Museum and Tourist  Information Centre, housed in the old Canadian National Railway station,  shows pioneer items including primitive dental instruments from the  early 1900s. White Bear Powwow, a prime event, is held near Carlyle.
Estevan [E4] Known as Energy City, Estevan is a foremost  Saskatchewan producer of oil and coal. Tours cover three energy sites:  the Luscar Ltd. coal mines, Boundary Dam Power Station (Canada's largest  lignite-fired thermal facility), and the environmentally advanced  coal-fired Shand Power Station. Visitors can inspect Shand Greenhouse,  which uses the station's waste heat to grow tree seedlings and ground  cover for reclaimed mine sites. IS Estevan is blessed with 2,540 hours  of sunshine a year, more than any other city in Canada. The city's name  honors two Canadian Pacific Railway executives-George Stephen and  William van Horne-who brought CPR's Soo Line here in the 1890s. The  restored North West Mounted Police fort, beside the Estevan National  Exhibition Centre, evokes frontier days.
Moose Mountain Provincial Park [A6] Set atop a wooded, hilly  plateau, this 388 km2 park has welcomed vacationers since the early  1900s. Today, this year-round getaway offers fishing, golf, tennis,  hiking, horse riding, and cross-country skiing. Accommodations range  from campsites to the deluxe Kenosee Lake Inn. A superslide at the  entrance makes a big splash with kids and teens. An Elizabethan-style  visitors center, built in 1931, describes the park's plant and animal  life, which includes moose and elk.

Weyburn [B1] The Wheel of Progress, displayed in the town  hall, celebrates Weyburn's past and present. This community symbol is a  mosaic, 4 m in diameter and weighing over 900 kg. Today, Weyburn is a  service center for local grain farmers and cattlemen. Turning Curling  Museum has 75 curling stones and other treasures bound to delight  enthusiasts of the sport. Soo Line Historical Museum displays the 5,000  items in the Charles Wilson Silver Collection, said to be the largest  individual collection of its kind in Canada.      
О Some say Weyburn got its name in 1893 from some Scottish  railway builders who called the Souris River a "wee burn." Writer W. 0.  Mitchell, who spent his boyhood in Weyburn, called it "Crocus" in his  beloved novel Who Has Seen the Wind?
