Have you ever seen a sasquatch? Every year, alleged sightings are reported of the legendary cryptid in the Bow Valley and Kananaskis Country.

Voluntary paid parking is coming to popular Kananaskis Country trailheads this winter to help cover the $200,000 needed to maintain and groom cross-country ski trails, which was cut from the provincial budget earlier this year

“He passed in my arms ... his helmet was in his backpack."

“He pitched forward into a rocky area, suffering severe trauma,” according to a KPS Facebook post, which noted the man was not wearing a helmet. “This was not an avalanche incident.”

“It’s people scratching in or etching, or painting or drawing in their names or initials, and it might have a date and a symbol, for example a heart."

“The mother bear swatted him and knocked him down. He put his arm up, and it grabbed him by the elbow, bit him. He played dead, the bear dropped him and ran off, and he laid there for 10 minutes.”

A paid parking pass program is being proposed to Alberta Parks that would enable cross-country ski trails to continue staying groomed in Kananaskis Country for the 2020-21 season after it was cut from the provincial budget earlier this year

“The big concern is when you remove a park from the Parks system, it is no longer protected."
