Rural and urban exploration

I have been wandering the backroads 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. Abandoned Saskatchewan buildings are the focus but I do venture into other provinces and states.

Locations are mainly in Saskatchewan and the Canadian prairies but to extend to parts of the United States.

Hello!

My name is alicia 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 disappearing from our landscape. Join me on my journey to document these locations before they are gone.
