1.5 weeks before we hit the trails, I decided to look at the conditions... Canadian trail books inform readers to prepare for the worse! I have heeded these warnings. Here is today's information:
Banff National Park of CanadaUpdated: Tuesday, June 21, 2005
Record rainfall and cooler temperatures over the June 18th weekend have resulted in approximately 25cm (10 inches) of fresh snow at higher elevations. Expect most trails to be wet and muddy throughout the park. Help preserve vegetation by wearing sturdy footwear and staying on the trail.
Bears continue to frequent valley bottoms. Please remember to:? Obey warning and closure signs.? Stay alert on the trail, make noise, carry bear spray, travel in groups.? Keep your dog on a leash at all times. ? Have an alternate trail planned and be prepared to turn around in case you encounter Warning or Closure notices on the trail.
