General Information

....The Quill Lakes and it's communities are located in east-central Saskatchewan, Western Canada; 200 miles north of the USA border and 100 miles west of the Sask-Manitoba border.

....The area is easily accessible by road or by air. Provincial highway 16, the Yellowhead Highway, passes south of the Quill Lakes. The Yellowhead Highway is the major east-west highway linking the Quill Lakes to Winnipeg, Manitoba and Saskatoon, Saskatchewan and Edmonton, Alberta. North-south provincial highway 6, the CanAm Highway and highway 35 link to Regina, Saskatchewan and Williston, North Dakota.

....If you plan to travel by airline, both Saskatoon and Regina have scheduled jet service. You can rent a car or truck there for the two hour drive to the Quills or you can charter a light plane and make the trip shorter. Light plane pilots have a choice of airports in Quill Lake, Wadena or Wynyard; Wynyard's airport is paved and lighted.

....Rental trucks or cars are available in several of the Quill Lake towns, check the town you plan to visit for a rental dealer.
