Gophers around Edmonton-Where?

[spacesaver]

As you'll see a few threads down, I've invited fellow CGNer sniperelite and his brother out to Edmonton for some gopher shooting this year. Alot of you have responded with suggestions concerning how to approach farmers and conduct after having done so and we thank you for your input. What I would like to ask is what direction should we be heading to find the furry vermin? I would like to think that we could find something within 2 hours from Edmonton; sound resonable? And can anyone give us actual town names where we might try?
Thanks for all your help!

East or South East most places its 22lr only . the only place i shoot .223 is on family or friends property . the further you go off the highway the more chances of a good patch . some of the best gopher patches have been pasture for 20 plus years. recent pasture ...not so much
