Landowner Rights & Trail User Responsibilities

The Waskahegan Trail is a unique resource that exists only because of the generosity of landowners. Before you set foot on the trail:

  1. Know the landowner rights and the trail user responsibilities.
  2. Check the trail conditions

Whitemud Creek Hike from Snow Valley

Nine people came out to hike the trail from Snow Valley to John Janzen Nature Centre on one of Edmonton’s colder days of deep winter.

Along the way, we met Wayne Oakes, the nature photographer who gave a fascinating presentation at our 2022 AGM. Wayne is out here all the time, with a tripod and camouflage, taking pictures from the trail of the remarkable animals and plants in the Whitemud Ravine.

Thanks to John for scouting and leading the hike and to everyone for coming out on this day. Here are the photos on Flickr.

Where we’re going next.

Mill Creek Ravine Winter Hike

Seven hikers came out for the walk through Mill Creek Ravine. It’s a popular and well-used trail all year round. Already this winter, the trail was packed down by dog walkers. This made walking very comfortable.

We came across a few decorations. Not as many as we had seen in previous years, but still festive and colourful as always.

Thanks to everyone for coming out and being such great company. You can find more photos on Flickr.
