    That trip will give lots of options of good places to stay and eat all along the way.
    Neat places to see :
    - Moose Jaw - tunnels
    - Cypress Hils , Maple Creek area
    - Medicine Hat , Lethbridge irrigation district
    - Rocky Mountains / foothills Calgary area
    - HWY 2 corridor Red Deer and Edmonton
    - Lloydminster boarder city
    - HWY 16 parkland area , North Sask river valley
    - Saskatoon , basicallly the central area of western Canada
    - Big Quill lakes area
    - Yorkton farming area
    - Quepel Valley
    - Manitoba escarpment area
    - Red River region : Brandon into Winnipeg.
    - Estivan coal / oil fields
    Regina plains
    Other notables:
    The Geat Sand Hills - north of Maple Creek
    Prince Albert , northern Forest area
    Moose Mountain area
    Golf courses everywhere along that route
    I am sure I missed many things but that is a basic trip I would take.
    Most likely many other opinions but that will give a very complete round trip .

      furrow.... sounds like he only wanted to spend two weeks in Sask....LOL. Your itinerary might take two months. Everything is so spread out in Western Canada. Long distances between sight seeing destinations. But you're right it will give him a good cross section of what's available.

      Can you imagine relocating? My roots here run pretty deep on the same patch of dirt my Great GrandMother helped her son homestead. Once again emotions over-riding business sense.

                If its the farming aspect that interests you, a better time to tour is likely late July-Sept when crops are headed/podded. You will be here right at seeding time. You will probably get kidnapped by a BTO and tyed to a tractor seat. LOL
