The Sandhills Of Carberry

The Sandhills Of Carberry

John E. Dubois
5/5 ( ratings)
The Carberry Sandhills lie 100 miles west of Winnipeg and 18 miles south of the Trans-Canada Highway. Unique to Manitoba, it is comparable to few other areas in Canada. It is a mosaic of evergreen stands, deciduous forest bottomlands, open grassy plains, and low rolling hills - old sand dunes that were stabilized by vegetation.

The Carberry Sandhills originated 12,000 years ago, when glaciers retreated from southwestern Manitoba. In terms of diversity of wildlife and the occurrence of relict populations, this is the most important natural region of Manitoba. Its presevation will require foresight and determination, in the face of multiple uses proposed for it.
