Description
Tell people that Manitoba has over 80 provincial parks and the usual response is disbelief. Just in Manitoba you say? You bet. And with that many, there is probably one close to where you live.
A dollop of historical information, a handful of firsthand experiences, and the occasional snippet of park trivia is blended into each park description, creating a recipe for your next vacation. Whether you are hitting the road for a week, daytripping, or enjoying the best recreational hot spotsfrom the comfort of your favourite armchair, From Asessippi to Zed Lake will be your indispensable and beautifully illustrated guide.
