This is a mining community in the Canadian Badlands that has been dwindling for years. With originally over 3,000 people, the population is down to 140 people and decreasing more each year. There are a few people that live in the main "downtown strip" of East Coulee... but it is quite eerie. There is an old school museum. An abandoned mining bridge over the river that leads to a derelict mine, and the remains of an old rail trail which goes throughout most of the Badlands and Drumheller area.

There are many tiny, mini houses along the main street... some empty, some not. There are a few stores... completely forgotten, but looking through the windows you can see everything still exactly in it's spot. There are many historic sites, ghost towns, and abandoned buildings around East Coulee, Drumheller, and the Canadian Badlands.
