    While the valley continues to be a popular visitor's destination, attractions this year have seen a slight contraction in visits compared to last year. However in the long run, overall visitation continues to be strong.
    The Royal Tyrrell Museum is celebrating its 25th anniversary this season, and while there has been continual stream of visitors coming through the doors this summer, the museum’s numbers have taken a small tumble compared to last year.  

Original derrick hand sees well decommissioned after five decades

    It is not rare for a young man to travel across the country for work, especially in the oil and gas industry, but for one Drumheller man, while this is how his career began, it is almost like the industry came to him, and remained for the better part of five decades.
    This summer a well in the Wayne Rosedale Field was decommissioned. While this is a regular occurrence in the industry, for Eskeland, it held more meaning.
