Ah, so I can prove we are not just flat wheat fields!!

Fantastic shot - lots of depth reaching back to the horizon, which makes me ask: what hills? I can't see any!!

@Sidonie: Cypress Hiils have rolling hills. I know it is hard to tell from this image. Cypress Hills is the 2nd highest point in Canada, the Rocky Mountains being the highest. Cypress Hills is very unique place.

I know how you feel. Everyone always says Oklahoma is just a bunch of flat land full of wheat fields. Then they visit and find out just how rolling the hills are here. Nice picture!

@James Corbridge: Ya, Saskatchewan does have the flat land expecially on highway #1, which is our main highway through our proivince, so if you are traveling through you really do not get a good representation of our province. It is a pity since there is alot of very nice places to see.

Nice shot, I was under the impression that it was all flat land too. bad of me considering I live in Canada. One day I should take a trip around the country and explore some of the more interesting features.
