About Nemiskam National Park
Nemiskam National Park was created north of the community of Nemiskam (today a ghost town) in south central Alberta, Canada, in 1922. The park was closed and delisted in 1947. The first park superintendent was Edgar McHugh. Nemiskam is a Blackfoot word meaning "between two valleys", referring to the Chin Coulee and Etzikom Coulee on either side of the former community.
