Calling all Bush Whackers - Volunteer Opportunity

This is an external volunteer activity that may be of interest to members.

Hello Nordic Ski Enthusiasts!  

 

The Friends of Kananaskis Country, Canmore Trail Alliance, and the Canmore Nordic Centre  would like to invite you to take part in the Canmore Nordic Centre – Ski Trail Bushing project.

 

We have developed an off-season winter ski trail maintenance plan to improve the centre’s ski trails. We will be brushing back ~2 metres of vegetation from the edge of the ski trails to maximize the trail width in winter months when the trail-side trees and shrubs get loaded with snow and encroach into the skiable area. 

 

WHAT TO EXPECT

The level of effort for this project is easy to moderate. We’ll be walking several kilometres, pruning and clipping of vegetation, and removing cuttings from the ski trails 

 

PROJECT DATES 

Saturday July 18,
