The Beaver Hills are a range of hills located in the Canadian province of Saskatchewan.〔(【引用サイトリンク】 url = http://www4.rncan.gc.ca/search-place-names/unique/HAKHG )〕 Yorkton is situated approximately 35 miles south-east of the hills. The Whitesand River, a tributary of the Assiniboine River, originates in the Beaver Hills.〔(Assiniboine River Watershed Source Water Protection Plan ), Saskatchewan Watershed Authority〕 Large areas of native grasslands and shrubs can still be found in the Beaver Hills region, and along the Whitesand River.〔(Upper Assiniboine River Basin Study ), Environment Canada〕 The hills are well-adapted for stock raising.〔(Twentieth century Canada and atlas of Western Canada, for the guidance of intending settlers--its resources and development, with maps of the Dominion of Canada, provinces of Manitoba, Saskatchewan, Alberta. ) Canada. Dept. of the Interior〕 ==History==
Early colonization of the hills included a colony of three to four hundred Dakotans at Sheho, Saskatchewan. Disappointment at the lack of the promised transcontinental rail line caused these numbers to dwindle to just a few〔http://www.rootsweb.ancestry.com/~cansk/SaskatchewanAndItsPeople/Volume2/smaller.html〕 by the late 1800s. In 1897〔(The Encyclopedia of Saskatchewan )〕 the first Galician (Ukrainian) colony in Canada, consisting of 511 families, was established at Beaver Hills.〔(Folk Furniture of Canada's Doukhobors, Hutterites, Mennonites and Ukrainians ), John A. Fleming, Michael J. Rowan, James Albert Chambers, University of Alberta, 2004〕 In 1903 telephone service was extended to Beaver Hills.〔(City of Yorkton )〕 The towns of Ituna, Saskatchewan〔(The Columbia gazetteer of North America. ) Saul B. Cohen. New York: Columbia University Press, 2000.〕 and Kelliher, Saskatchewan〔(The Columbia gazetteer of North America. ) Saul B. Cohen. New York: Columbia University Press, 2000.〕 are located in the Beaver Hills. A large boulder with a carved face petroglyph was found on December 25, 1905 by Charles Noddings from the Beaver Hills area, and was the stimulus for the creation of the Royal Saskatchewan Museum in 1906.〔(Royal Saskatchewan Museum )〕 Bernard Leo Korchinski, Liberal member for the provincial riding of Redberry from 1948–1952 and 1956–1960, was born in the Beaver Hills in 1905.〔(The Ukrainian Canadian Congress – Saskatchewan Provincial Council )〕
