The area is in great shape for a hike and we will hike about 15 km including two beaver dam crossings, one about 100 m long. Hiking poles or sturdy sticks (available in the wild) are recommended for the dam crossing. We will likely do that crossing near the start of the hike.

• Proper sturdy footwear for hiking as well as clothing suitable for variable weather conditions. Includes proper head cover, sun glasses, light breathable clothing, light jacket and rain gear. The water levels are high this year, and we are recommending gaiters or rain pants be worn for this hike as there is potential for lots of wet vegetation on your lower legs.
• Food, snacks and drinks for the day plenty of water
• Sunscreen, insect repellant, personal items, etc.
• Please bring a personal mask and hand sanitizer
• Optional – binoculars, camera, hiking poles

We will observe COVID-19 precautions and guidance from the Government of Alberta and expect participants to follow appropriate sanitizing and social distancing. We thank you for your understanding and cooperation! If you need more details you can check the Government website at: this link.

Please bring a personal mask and your own hand sanitizer.
