A Wildlife Warning and Bear Closure have been issued in parts of Kananaskis Country due to increased wildlife activity this week.
The Bear Closure was put in place on Monday, Sept. 15, for Rockwall Trail and the Peter Lougheed Discovery Centre Meadow area, after multiple bears were seen feeding nearby.
On Tuesday, a Wildlife Warning was issued for the Upper Kananaskis Lake Trail (from the Upper Lake Day Use area to Point Campground, not including the campground itself) and the Hidden Lake area, following an encounter with an aggressive moose.
These are just the latest in a series of advisories. Two Bear Warnings were also issued over the weekend for Village Rim Trail and Burstall Pass Trail after grizzly bears bluff-charged hikers.
The Bear Warning issued in mid-August for all of Kananaskis Country and Bow Valley remains in effect.
