Bragg Creek. A small town at the base of the rocky mountains and the gateway to kananaskis country. One trail passes through bragg creek called the Cowboy trail. On this trail in the Historic building "The Bragg Creek Trading Post" The sign that I would like feature isn't the trading post sign exactly but the Shell gas sign and a 1920 hand pump located outside the shop.
Here is a small excerpt from the website cowboytrail.com
"Business as usual at the Trading Post means a truly unique shopping experience. Where else can you gas up from a 1920’s visual hand pump while you buy your bread and milk, local vine-ripened tomatoes or a juicy T-bone steak; outfit yourself in a new shirt, Cowichan Sweater, or gumboots; purchase a fishing license or a chain saw file or chalk for your chalk-line; or best of all try on a pair of genuine Native moccasins or mukluks? Where else can one conduct all this sort of business around the warmth of a trusty wood heater, admist the aroma of freshly tanned hides while joining other locals present in the lively discussion of the latest issues?Truly a unique shopping experience with a subtle mingling of the old and the new. That is the essence of the Trading Post to this day. "
Bragg Creek is a beautiful little hamlet that has great restaurants, beautiful day hikes, amazing camping, great fishing and quirky little shops. Take your bike, snow shoes, harley, fancy car, cross country ski's, your girlfriend/boyfriend, or even your family out for a trip to Bragg some time.
Enjoy
