How to See Alberta (10-Day Suggested Itinerary) (Updated 2025)

"For a quirky detour, I recommend the Gopher Hole Museum in Torrington: it’s a small room of taxidermied gophers staged in humorous scenes (curling gophers, beautician gophers, etc.) that provides plenty of WTF moments in about a half-hour visit." - Matthew Kepnes
