  • February Newsletter
    Winter continues to cover Kananaskis in a blanket of snow. Have you been out enjoying it? If You Admire the View, You Are a Friend Of Kananaskis For the rest of 2013, the Friends Newsletter will feature wildlife camera photographs from Kananaskis Country. The photos were provided by John Paczkowski, the Park Ecologist for Kananaskis Country. Many of the photographs are part of research programs in the various areas of Kananaskis. The one above is a cougar attempting to steal a beaver carcass hung in a tree. These carcasses are used to attract and photograph wolverines, and the barbed wire you see allows collection of hair samples for DNA identity testing. If you have not met John, you should. He has spoken at several Friends events, and has one of the best jobs in the world, tracking wildlife movements in and around K-Country. Beside which, John's a great guy and we thank him for his generosity in supplying these photos. Trail Care 2013 Update By Rosemary Power, Program CoOrdinator With the spring just around the corner, we are looking ahead to our 2013 Trail Care season with TransAlta as the title sponsor for this years program. Thanks to you, our hard working volunteers, we will be providing trail maintenance and construction in a wide variety of locations in and around Kananaskis Country. As in previous years, our main trail work days will be the second Saturday of each month but additional days, both weekday and weekend, will likely be created. Work usually ranges from pruning back bushes growing alongside the trail, through to digging drainage channels, sawing logs (by hand) and splitting rock or moving boulders.

These natural values have put the Eastern Slopes on the world map as a place to visit and experience the wilderness. Since the early 1900s, government documents have been clear that watershed protection is the highest priority for this area. The Eastern Slopes include an abundance of natural resources: water, fish, wildlife, forests, other vegetation, rangeland, natural gas, oil, coal and other minerals. These natural resources are all in demand to various extents by the public, the private sector and governments. Pressures associated with the gas, oil and forestry industries within the Eastern Slopes have caused significant land use conflicts among the many stakeholders, as they have attempted to balance industrial development with public recreation, a growing tourism sector and conservation of the area’s rich natural resources through multiple land use strategies.

  • Amenity Migration and the Growing Pains of Western Canadian Mountain Towns
    The Search for Paradise: Amenity migration and the growing pains of western Canadian mountain towns Presented at the Canadian Political Science Association Vancouver, British Columbia, June 2008 Lorna Stefanick Associate Professor, Athabasca University [email protected] Migration is not a new phenomenon, it has been happening since the dawn of human history. What is new is that toward the end of the 2nd millennium the motivation for this migration changed. In the past people moved primarily in search of food, or later, for economic reasons. Now there is a significant movement of people occurring because of a desire to attain a particular lifestyle: migrants are seeking a particular environment and a differentiated culture associated with rural areas, and in particular, rural areas located in coastal or mountain regions. This movement of humans to smaller communities in rural areas is referred to as “amenity migration,” a phenomenon that stands in sharp contrast the rapid urbanization and suburbanization that occurred in the 20th century. The amenity migration phenomenon is happening worldwide, and as a result of globalization and internationalization the migration is also happening across national boundaries. Amenity migration is having a profound impact on previously remote communities, many of which were in economic decline. In North America, research on amenity migration has focused primarily on the western USA, especially the movement of urbanites to rural communities in the Rocky Mountains. Comparatively little work has been done in Canada. While the effects of amenity migration might be less pronounced in this country, it is beginning to create huge challenges for communities in the mountains of western Canada.

  • Exploring the Vastness of Banff National Park
    Exploring the Vastness of Banff National Park By Claire Walter o borrow on old Ttravelogue cliché, Alberta’s Banff National Park is study in contrast. Its 2,586 square miles comprise both wilderness and civilization. There are high mountains, deep valleys, endless forests and abundant wildlife. Even though much of it feels and looks remote, it is just 70 miles from Calgary – and the Trans-Canada Highway runs right through it. It contains one large town (Banff), one smaller town (Lake Louise Village), two palatial hotels (the Fairmont Banff Springs and Fairmont Chateau Lake Louise) and three significant downhill ski areas (Ski Lake Louise, Sunshine and Norquay). It is a park among parks, with Kootenay National Park just to the south, Yoho National Park to the west (and in another province) and Jasper National Park to the north. It is Canada’s oldest national park and also the one with phenomenal snowshoe opportunities. It’s a great destination for a snowshoe getaway or a multi-activity winter vacation with snowshoeing among the options. There’s skiing (Alpine and Nordic), wildlife viewing, spa- hopping and enjoying the shops, galleries, restaurants and nightspots in Banff or quieter Lake 1 Go FartherTM Model: ARTICA™ BACKCOUNTRY q Two-Piece Articulating Frame q Virtual Pivot Traction Cam q Quick-Cinch™ One-Pull Binding q 80% Recyclable Materials, No PVC’s eastonmountainproducts.com ©2010 easton mountain products Louise Village. As a bonus, winter is low season in Banff, so lodging is a bargain and the shops offer incredible values. Snowshoeing Options The most straightforward snowshoeing is practically from the doorstep of the Chateau Lake Louise.
