Lake Louise

“This is a project that’s going to develop the region. It’s not one municipality, it’s each municipality within a region and how they support each other.”

BANFF – Hot on the heels of well above normal temperatures, snow is dumping at higher elevations in Kananaskis Country and the Bow Valley and forcing a rare June snowstorm warning for the Icefields Parkway.

“Parks Canada would like to extend its sincere condolences to all those impacted by this tragic event.”

EDITORIAL: No matter if it’s 10, 20 or 30 years, the 2013 floods will always be a part of the area’s history for better or worse. But when people look back in years to come, their determination and resolve will always be remembered.

“It’s still a work in progress, but I’d say there’s at least half of it operational now,” said Saundi Stevens, a wildlife management specialist for Banff, Yoho and Kootenay national parks.

“At that point, between ourselves and the BC Wildfire Service, we decided to classify this fire out or extinguished. Given the location where we can see it relatively well from the Kootenay viewpoint and other locations, we will continue to monitor it.”

“It looks like fairly wide-spread precipitation, although some of the weather forecasts last week showed some precipitation throughout our mountain parks, and we didn’t see much, but this one certainly seems like a larger change in weather event, so hopefully we will see a decrease in fire danger.”
