PA@5 Features Gord Vaadeland – Canadian Parks and Wilderness Society

Mar 4, 2020 | 8:55 AM

Gord was born and raised on the family ranch near Big River, Saskatchewan along the southwest boundary of the Prince Albert National Park.

The ranch happily shares this space with the wild, free ranging Plains bison in and around the Prince Albert National Park and wakes up to them in their back yard on many occasions.

Gord founded Sturgeon River Ranch, an adventure tourism company that allows guests the opportunity to view wild bison while on horseback in the Prince Albert National Park. Their outback package, ‘Take a Ride on the Wild West Side’ is a part of Destination Canada’s Signature Experience Collection – one of only 6 in the province to have achieved this designation.

Gord serves as Executive Director for CPAWS-Saskatchewan and is co-founder of the Sturgeon River Plains Bison Stewards (SRPBS). Additionally, Gord is the Past Chair of the Waskesiu and Area Wilderness Region Destination Marketing Area.

Through these many experiences, Gord has developed a strong and engaged following on social media and he strives to use these platforms to share positive messages.
