Our hosts pitch their tents on the grounds of one of the largest rodeos in the world - or the Greatest Outdoor Show on Earth, as it’s also known - the Calgary Stampede. They check out the Rodeo’s Chuck Wagon Village where they experience the thrill of chuck wagon racing. Then they set up camp at Indian Village where they learn about the history and customs of the Treaty Seven. Then they head up north of the stampede to the Composting Technology Centre at the Olds College Centre for Innovation to find out what happens to all the rodeo leftovers.

Jennifer and Jamie journey to Alberta to conquer their fear of heights and explore the magnificent Rocky Mountains! What could compare to the stunning helicopter ride Jamie and Jennifer take over Banff National Park? How about some genuine rock climbing in Grassi Lakes canyon, near the town of Canmore, Alberta! Thirteen-year-old outdoor enthusiast Kenna Meilicke not only teaches our adventurers how to scale mountains, she also takes them on a high-altitude camping adventure, complete with a visit from bear-loving Eldon! Then Jamie and Jennifer are off to the Cave and Basin Hot Springs, for a mineral-rich, if sulphur-stinky, hot water soak! Later, Jamie and Jennifer experience first-hand the Central Rockies’ Wolf Project co-ordinator Carolyn Callaghan’s dedication to the plight of these largely misunderstood animals. Jamie even gets a glimpse of a wolf through his infrared geocam! And what trip to Banff would be complete without a visit to the Banff Springs Hotel, one of the most stunning resorts in all of Canada. Clip on, and hang on tight, for a special episode of cool climbing, stinky swims, and wolf watching, all happening this week on CG Kids!
