History comes alive at Rocky trading fort (Calgary Herald)

From The Calgary Herald through canada.com:

by Joanne Elves , Calgary Herald

"The only standing remains are two fieldstone chimneys, but archaeological digs have uncovered many artifacts and the exact locations of the forts, making for a wonderful site to explore....
We went to Rocky Mountain House recently to be a part of Brigade Days. Even though the historic site is 200 years old, I found new things have been going on, making this not only a history lesson, but a day of discovery".
