Kyle, Saskatchewan
From Wikipedia, the free encyclopedia
Kyle is a town located in the southwestern part of the province of Saskatchewan, Canada with an average population of about 500. The village was named for original settler Jerry Kyle in 1923. Kyle is 45 miles (72.4 kilometers) north of Swift Current, 125 miles (201 kilometers) southwest of Saskatoon, and 200 miles (321.8 kilometers) west of Regina. The Canada Post postal code for Kyle is S0L 1T0.
The town is locally famous both for being the site of a 12,000-year-old woolly mammoth discovery during road construction in 1964 (the bones of which are now on display at the Royal Saskatchewan Museum in Regina), and being the nearest community to La Reata Ranch, a working cattle ranch that doubles as a resort and allows guests to experience a real cowboy lifestyle first-hand.
Near the town of Kyle is the regional park Clearwater Lake. On the road to it stands one of the last few drive-in movie theaters in Western Canada, which remains a very popular evening attraction for both young and old in the summer months.
