Located at Burbank Campground, this photo point overlooking the confluence of the Blindman River and Red Deer River serves as an important tool for monitoring the dynamic interaction of these two waterways. River systems are constantly shaped by seasonal flows, erosion, sediment movement, and climatic conditions, making long-term observation essential for understanding changes across the landscape. By providing a consistent visual record over time, this station contributes valuable information that supports watershed stewardship, environmental management, and conservation planning. Through this initiative, Lacombe County remains committed to protecting the health and resilience of its river systems while preserving the ecological and recreational value of these natural landscapes for future generations.
Lacombe County contains vast, beautiful farm lands, with several 100-year-old farms still operating, as well as friendly hamlets, rural acreage communities, and a mixture of new and established lake communities. We take great pride in honouring our historic rural roots, while supporting new development opportunities. Lacombe County is 2,964 square kilometres and contains six hamlets ecompassing 41 townships (including partial townships). Recreational lakes, such as Gull Lake, Sylvan Lake, Buffalo Lake, and Lacombe Lake, are subject to a high-frequency of vistors making the management of these waterbodies and the preservation of their value for generations to come a top priority.
