Hikes in 2018 and Onwards
We have tentatively approved locations for upcoming hikes. Based on Parks Canada guidelines, a site inside the Banff National Park may only be used only once every 5 years. Since several sites are shared with the Trail Riders of the Canadian Rockies, this means that many sites are only available once every 10 years. In 2019, Parks Canada will undertake their planning process for the next ten years. This plan will be tabled in Canada's House of Parliament in 2020. Until this plan is passed by the federal government, Parks Canada cannot advice us of which sites Skyline Hikers can use after 2020.  2018 - Tall Timbers (Bryant Creek and Mount Assiniboine)
