RUral and urban exploration on the prairies

I have been wandering the backroads of saskatchewan since 2007 in search of all things abandoned and historic. This website is dedicated to the preservation of these places through photography and historical research.

Hello!

My name is ali and I am the photographer behind this website. I also do all the research, writing and wandering.

It all began in 2007 when I started exploring the backroads. I was mainly looking for abandoned churches and ghost towns but this passion grew into large locations like hospitals, movie sets, institutions, military bases, industrial sites and more. I have visited hundreds, if not thousands of locations (if you start counting every farmhouse), mainly in Saskatchewan. 

The website is now a combination of locations, complete with history and information, then + now photos, blog articles and soon videos. My goal is to document and preserve abandoned and historic locations throughout the province. Unfortunately, many locations are already gone and others are disppearing from our landscape. Join me on my journey to document these locations before they are gone.

As you nothing is free and there is a cost to this website as well as all the adventures I go on.
If you want to donate a small amount, even to buy me a hot chocolate - I wil be much appreciated.
