Notes:
People who signed up for the cancelled trip April 29th have first priority of being accepted.
We’ll look for the Yamnuska Natural area northern loop starting and ending at the Yam parking. Because there is no signage in the area and there are many unofficial paths I post this hike as exploratory. We may spot some prarie crocuses and hear and see the bird and waterfowl spring arrivals. Grippers may still be needed and do bring your bear spray along.
Please refer to Tony Duffrin’s description of the area under “ Hiking below Yamnuska in Kananaskis Country “ at kananaskistrails.com
