[MCR] Area Closure 1A: Banff National Park

Public Mountain Conditions Report mcr at informalex.org
Wed Apr 30 17:03:51 EDT 2014


Just passing this message along from the Banff Fire Management team. This
closure includes all the climbing on Mt. Cory as well as the Mt Edith and
Mt Louis approaches. I believe the closure is in effect until May 30th:


Please note the following area closure effective today, April 30, 2014:

Where: The area between Hillsdale Meadow at the east end of the Hillsdale
split to the Fireside day-use area (including parking lot and Edith and
Mt. Cory trails - Edith pass trail to its junction with Cory pass trail).
Highway 1A, the Bow Valley Parkway, is still open for vehicular travel
(see link for map).

Why: To ensure public safety during prescribed fire operations.
