Details:
A section of the Spray Lakes Road/Highway 742/Smith-Dorrien Trail on the Canmore Hill is closed in both directions between the Grassi Lakes turnoff and the top of the hill (dam) and the Reclaimer Trail due to a Rockslide.
Travel is prohibited for all road users including vehicles, cyclists and pedestrians to ensure public safety. A rockslide has resulted in dangerous conditions for all road users. Unsupported rock remains above the road and could result in a second slide. As area assessments are ongoing, the timeline for repairs and reopening remains uncertain. Please respect all closures and stay clear of the area.
This closure affects access to several day use areas in Peter Lougheed and Spray Valley Provincial Park, Spray Lakes West Campground, as well as Ha Ling Peak, Miner's Peak, East End of Rundle (EEOR), and Goat Creek trailheads. These areas can still be accessed via Highway 40 South and the open portion of the Spray Lakes Road/Highway 742/Smith-Dorrien Trail northbound via Peter Lougheed Provincial Park but visitors should be prepared for longer travel times.
