If you come from AB I would think nothing could be too flat. I lived in Calgary and other than the Rockies the prairies are not totally flat but close to. The drive to Medicine Hat didn't have too many hills.

Canmore would have to be one of my favourite places for taking the dogs for a walk, Spray Lakes.

Ya the Spray lakes are beautiful, I use to fly for the local helicopter company there, Alpine Helicopters, used to fly over the spray everyday!!!

Yes, the drive to Medicine Hat can be educational, particularily when a breeze is blowing thru the Crowsnest Pass sweeping semi trailer tractor units off the not so pristine roads, but no hills, well not much of anything.

The jpg on the left taken near Banff is probably what you remember; the one on the right is what I am looking at these days. Medicine Hat is somewhere ahead.
