MH is a city of about 50,000 people. It got it's name in the early 1800s when the crow and black foot were fighting along the South Saskatchewan river. I guess the black foot medicine man panicked during the fight and fled across the river, losing his medicine man hat in the process. White settlers shortened the name from medicine man without a hat to medicine hat.

MH is situated in Alberta near the Saskatchewan border. Lots of wind and sun (sunniest place in Canada with about 3800hrs of sun per year. At 10PM you can still play golf). And if you like mosquitos this is the place for you!
