The Big Muddy
The Big Muddy badlands are located in Southern Saskatchewan. They evoke images of lawless scoundrels from the "wild west" and are an amazing display of nature's architecture. Castle Butte is a one-of-a-kind monument, and you won't want to miss this trip!
Castle Butte
Castle Butte is a unique landmark in the Big Muddy badlands. It is a sandstone and clay-based formation that was formed during the ice age and contains alkali and coal deposits. The Butte is a popular spot as it offers breathtaking views of the surrounding area. Rising 70 metres in height, it also served as a landmark to First Nations people, the NWMP and early settlers.
Aust's General Store
We will stop in at Aust's General Store in Big Beaver where you can purchase Souvenirs. The store has been in the Aust family since 1959 but the building dates back to 1928. The store boasts 4,000 sq. ft. of floor space. Please note, the Aust Store accepts CASH & INTERAC.
