Visited the Saamis Teepee in Medicine Hat for the first time finally! 🦬 "The Saamis Tepee was originally constructed for the Calgary 1988 Winter Olympics. Each of the 10 masts feature a large storyboard depicting aspects of native culture and history. Below the Saamis Tepee in scenic Seven Persons coulee lays the Saamis Archaeological Site, one of the most important archaeological sites of the Northern Plains. The area was once a buffalo camp and meat processing site, and experts believe over 83 million artifacts are buried at the site. The Saamis Tepee is located on the Trans-Canada Highway next to Tourism Medicine Hat. The main masts of the tepee measure 215 feet (the same as a 20 story building!) and the diameter is 160 feet, with a foundation weight of 800 metric tons." #saamisteepee #saamis #medicinehat #medicinehatalberta #worldstallest #worldstallestteepee #medicinehatteepee #sevenpersons #1988 #1988olympics #calgary1988 #saamisarchaeologicalsite #northernplains #transcanadahighway #tourismmedicinehat #200ft #800metrictonnes #tourismalberta #roadside #roadsideattractions #roadsidealberta #photospot #photop #thingstoseeinalberta #roadtripstop #goodtimes #itshuge

So this is a cool story that most people don’t know about. In Calgary Alberta Canada there is a Phillips 66 cowboy standing at the Calgary Tunneling and horizontal auguring business. He is an original Phillips 66 cowboy and was purchased directly from a Phillips 66 station back in the late 60s at the end of the cowboy program. He was one of the few cowboys that were actually ordered with the six gun on his hip. A businessman from Edmonton came down and purchased the cowboy and moved him to Canada. The man owned a mobile home business and the giant stood there until it closed around 1999. The cowboy was then moved to the owners farm until it was purchased by the current business. The giant was then given a brand new paint job and set up and also given a giant shovel to hold. Today the paint job is fading and the six gun is missing the grip handle but overall he’s still doing pretty good! #phillips66cowboy #roadsideattraction #mufflerman #americangiants #roadsidealberta #canada

Western Wayne. This cowboy towers at 30 feet tall. I learned from @americangiants post that he is one of the only two existing types of this giant. He has been a local icon for Western RV for over 20 years but was manufactured in the 1950’s. Not a fan of his jersey but he’s still pretty cool! @westernrv #roadside #roadsidegiants #roadsideattraction #roadsideattractions #big #cowboy #alberta #travelalberta #roadsidealberta #roadsidecanada #calgaryflames #westernrv #westernrvcountry #airdrealberta #ipulledoverforthis #idpulloverforthat
