Searching Boon-docking spots.



We went for a lovely drive in search of more boon-docking spots. 
The weather was perfect and we were fortunate to see some more Feral horses. 






DNA tests reveal interesting lineage in central Alberta’s wild horses




“Sundre, Alberta – The horses that roam wild in the foothills of west-central Alberta may have a Russian connection."

We had lunch at one of our favorite places near the  James Riverin the Bearberry Valley, near Sundre, Alberta, Canada. We discovered other campers had cut down the  Vandalized tree that died since we were there last and used it to build a bridge over the creek.

 

Erik had a nice swim in the creek and learnt how to cross the bridge.


We discovered some nice new spots and marked them on the GPS (next to the James River).

 

Outhouse with a Canadian flag for a door.


The spots that we found are on Alberta's crown land.
We didn't photograph them all as there were campers.


"...as an Albertan resident you’re allowed to use Crown Land (aka Public Land) for recreational purposes. ..."

Crown Land Camping



…boondocking typically means staying in a completely undeveloped area.” Free camp-sites.


Some spots even had Picnic benches (next to Yara Creek).

A beautiful spot with lots of shade, a large reasonably flat area and beautiful scenery next to a creek.




Another great spot with a picnic bench.


A not so nice spot by the river with a propane barbecue, table, roof, fire-pit, damaged trees, graffiti, etc.

 
A broken stainless steel barbecue and litter,  fortunately we didn't see too much of this.

 

A solar-powered butterfly.


Most of the creeks were full due to the spring run off.
