Frank

place. Tiny Village in Alberta blessed with an abundance of enormous picturesque boulders that make it the "Stonehenge" of the Rocky Mountains. What is the meaning of the odd arrangements? How did the simple people move the enormous stones? Aliens? Why did this advanced civilisation die out?

These, and other mysteries are not addressed at a Government Interpretive Centre. Conspiracy?

Abandoned coal mines abound: ideal for family excursions, or climb the famous "groaning" Turtle Mountain.

......................................................................................

Look at all the boulders! How did they move them? And why did they build their dwellings beneath them? To understand you have to think like the ancient village itself.

You're not going to be Frank are you?

Yes. Yes I am.
