Note that the clocks go forward Saturday night, so you lose an hour’s sleep. If you forget to move your clock forward, you’ll arrive at the carpool an hour late! Elevation Gain: about 110M. This will be an easy tune-up walk at Brown Lowery Provincial Park. This a little known jewel in Alberta's Parks system. Located only 45 minutes from Calgary, Brown Lowery Provincial Park is a beautiful area of old growth forest mixed with aspen and grassland. There will be stunning views of the mountains. We will be trying out alot of the 1/2 dozen trails that criss cross each other. Please note that the paths might be icy and or muddy, so ice cleats would be strongly recommended. Please be warned that your event coordinator has not hiked this area before but wants to check it out. Please allow time/patience for unforseen circumstances | |||||||
