Last weekend Birds Canada helped us turn our radio tower into an amazing project. It can detect birds up to 15 km away wearing nano tags.

Thanks to Motus Audio and Birds Canada for helping us track bird migration. You can all follow along and watch for our first bird detection during the migration this fall by checking the station out. It is tracking live currently!

Check www.motus.org for great ways you can help track bird migration by purchasing a nano tracker for only $6 that can last up to two years. Also go and check out the mind blowing range and speed of birds because you will be inspired to help protect them! Maybe you have a tower and would like to help by providing a space for their equipment?

Can you identify these animal tracks we saw today in the alpine? This is a pretty easy one. Thanks who are the keepers of this land we recreate on. We take our wildlife spotting very seriously and always take time to investigate runs before skiing them. Our guests were super fascinated to know what had created this track and to see how it traveled across glaciers and in such a straight line “It’s absolutely incredible”.

“Considerable” or “3” or “orange”. These are all different names for the same rating. Many fatalities happen at this hazard rating. Which name speaks to you?

Our patience payed off today when the fog monster was burning off in the morning and we were able to get out onto the Cambria for some amazing alpine turns.

Amazing efforts! Thanks very much Banff National Park for this and similar programs. I look forward to seeing these beauty’s grow over the decades. I love stopping with groups and talking about the white bark pines, larches and all the other indigenous flora and fauna that need our reciprocal help so that we can continue to recreate in these precious places for the next 7 generations.

check! Come in down and get a bike or get rid of a bike or do both! Great way to meet a great growing community of cyclists in Cochrane Alberta.

Test out your bike before you buy it at our Bike Swap on April 20! We have a trail system beside the AG society barn and will have ride guides on site (want to be a ride guide? Email us to volunteer) to join you on a test ride! How great is that?!
