Gold Bar and Tiger Goldstick Parks

We will continue to monitor the COVID-19 status and will gradually restart our hikes, with some obvious protocol changes listed at the bottom.

The hike will leave from the Gold Bar Parking Lot at about 10:00 a.m.. The pictures from January 17th, 2010 (hopefully without snow in early November).

BTW – daylight savings time ends at 2 a.m. on November 1st.

If you are new to WTA hikes, then you should visit the Guided Hikes webpage for essential information. For further information specific to this hike, refer to The Waskahegan Trail Guide Book (page 7), or contact the Hike Leader, Helen W., at 780-468-4331.

Initial protocol changes due to COVID-19:

• using public trails, in/near the city (not the WTA Trail as virtually all of the trail is on private land and we do not want to impact the landowners);
  
• meeting at the trailhead, no car pooling (so the start time reflects driving to the trailhead from the city rather than a 9am meeting point at Century Park or Belvedere Park & Ride);
  
• the hike leader will fill out all forms (e.g., signup sheet) & please use the online waver (to minimize what we all touch);
  
• Government of Alberta – Guidance on outdoor activities;
  
• recommending wearing a face mask (Government of Alberta – Guidance for wearing non-medical face masks);
  
• only attend if you are feeling well & comfortable being with the group.
