TIRED of the maddening crowds of tourist, a few days on the Peace river recharges my batteries. Paddling along the river you will see tons of birds and animals around every bend. Yes there are alligators but they don't bother anyone unless you mess with the babies or fed them. Great place for nature photography, fishing, fossiling, sunbathing.


Where the River Begins

The river, named for Peace Point, Alta., where the Cree and Beaver Indians settled their territorial dispute, became an important fur-trade route after it was explored by Sir Alexander Mackenzie (1792-93). Farming, the valley's economic mainstay during the early decades of the 20th century, is now supplemented by lumber, coal, petroleum, and natural gas.
