Red Deer Lake - Local Parlance - Student Story 2:
Dead Man’s Curve

It is named Dead Man’s Curve because it is a sharp curve and many people fall off the curve and die especially in the winter when it is very icy.

There was a story that was told to us…

Once, there was two busses that were traveling this dangerous road at the same time when they came upon each other and their side mirrors clicked and they almost fell off the narrow road going off the steep cliff. Very scary.

It is important to our community because stories and legends get passed on from child to child.
