Just northeast of the city of Winnipeg are huge gravel pits known as the Garven pits. Geological formations where there is unlimited fine sand/gravel deposits. The pits also have some the clearest and bluest water in the area. Many people go swimming in the pits even though it is illegal. A very interesting combination, huge pools of clean water and what looks like gigantic beaches.

Just outside the pits are the blooming canola fields.
