Notes:
Pleasant hiking in open/flat grassy areas and undulating aspen and pine forests, following the Kananaskis river in parts. First and End part of the hiking loop may be windy in the open areas so bring a good wind breaker. Also carry bear spray. I’ll decide in the morning of the hike whether it’s a go because the weather forecast is rather unreliable during ” Monsoon – June “. Please Check the Trip list at 7 am, June 10th for a possible cancellation announcement.
