Miedzinski describes Tumbler Ridge as a perfect gateway for hiking, biking and hunting enthusiasts, surrounded by pristine lands and located far from the nearest urban centres. Established in the ’80s and built around a nearby coal mine, the town is a roughly two-hour drive from Grande Prairie, just across the border in Alberta, and just over an hour from Dawson Creek, an oil and gas town with a population just over 10,000.
