March 1st: We start the week with good snow conditions. Ski Trail Grooming and Single Track Compaction has been underway since Friday and will likely be complete by Monday morning. There will be high daytime temperatures this week, snow conditions will deteriorate, likely being replaced by icy tread and frozen ruts.

Always come prepared for a variety of conditions, that can change suddenly throughout the day. You may want to consider bringing hiking poles, micro spikes, toques, gloves and multiple layers.

Strong wind gusts blew through the valley in the last few weeks. Some trees fell over and might be blocking the trails.

The Bragg Creek Trails group asks users to check their website for detailed condition reports before choosing their route. Ensuring you are using the correct trails at the correct times, helps to preserve trail tread and aids in preserving the hard work of volunteers and staff.

Notes:

Dogs must be on-leash within the Provincial Recreation Area
The georeferenced maps at right can be downloaded and used on Apps such as Avenza to follow your position while on trail.
There is now a free public cellular hotspot immediately south of the Trails Centre at the West Bragg Creek Parking Lot, which enables visitors to make emergency and non-emergency calls.
The All Season Trails system was created in partnership with the Government of Alberta and the Greater Bragg Creek Trails Association (GBCTA), recently rebranded as Bragg Creek Trails. Please visit the Bragg Creek Trails website to learn more.
Practice wildlife safety. Bears are active. Travel in groups, make noise on the trail, and keep pets on leash. Carrying bear spray and knowing how to use it is highly recommended, even in winter.
Caution is advised for natural hazards such as downed trees, washouts and missing bridges. Route-finding may be necessary. Please report any downed trees on the trails.
