Fall Colours in the Cypress Hills: Saskatchewan-Alberta Border

Fall on the Prairies is a golden time when leaves glow yellow and grasses fade to tan. But at the edge of the Cypress Hills recently, I saw additional fall colours: orange, green, and the soft pinks and purples of dry branches in this hillside pasture. (I love the Prairie landscape at this time of year...)

What is this? A pasture glowing with autumn colours, at the edge of the hills.  Scenery shot.
Location: Very near - or perhaps inside - the Cypress Hills Inter-Provincial Park, on the Alberta side, within a mile of Saskatchewan.
