We worked with Slate Falls Outposts out of Sioux Lookout to schedule a vacation that my 12-year-old son self-proclaimed on day 2 as being a bucket list trip!

I would highly recommend this ranch for a place to stay. The cabins were clean, comfortable, and a unique experience. We hiked in Little Missouri State … Continue reading Go West
Earlier this week I was able to take my son and his friend on a quick adventure up north. We spent the afternoon catfishing on the Red River (near Grand Forks).
