The Winnipeg, Manitoba graticule is located at (49,-97). It encompasses, of course, Winnipeg, as well as Altona, Winkler, Gretna, Morris, and many other small towns and villages in southern Manitoba. Most of the land is farmland, so most markers will end up in the middle of a field.

Early and late summer is beautiful with farming in full swing, as well as grass fires.
