SUMMARY:West Battle River (A57 towards Schnee Hill)
DESCRIPTION:We ran into an equipment issue during maintenance for the Saunders Lake hike that had been scheduled\, so we are going to redo the August Schnee Hill hike. \nA wonderful section of the trail along Battle River\, going east from Gwynne.  It has a little bit of everything\, including passing by what used to be the historic Low’s Crossing (well historic from a WTA perspective). Checkout Gene Miskiw’s “The Battle Bridge Story” with loads of pictures he’s shared with us at the AGM a few years ago (“The Battle Bridge Story” and more). Unfortunately\, the combination of age & changes to navigable water regulations forced us to remove it\, which Karen Bell documented as “A Bridge too Far”. A sad day for us all\, but a reminder to the dedication and ingenuity of the original WTA members. \nWe’ll meet at the trail head “A57” on Highway 822 (bend near the top of the hill after the tracks & river) at 9:45 a.m.. The hike will leave from ‘A57’ at 10:00. The pictures from Ausust 23rdt\, 2026. \nIf 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\, pages 48-49\,\, or contact the Hike Leader JoAnne B. & Lee S. by email or call 780-487-0645. \nHere are the write-ups from previous hikes on this section: \n\n\n\nAugust 2026\n\n\n\nMay 2025\n\n\n\nAugust 2024\n\n\n\nOctober 2021\n\n\n\nAugust 2021\n\n\n\nMay 2018\n\n\n\nSeptember 2017

SUMMARY:East Battle River (Duhamel) to Rest & Be Thankful Hill
DESCRIPTION:Traditionally this was our first out of town hike of the season & a glorious way to start spring … and for the past few years we’ve also added it to our fall schedule\, providing another chance at an out of town hike before winter hits. \nThe hike follows the Battle River east towards Stoney Creek and Camrose. It starts by following the river\, low in the valley across open grassland\, but eventually winds its way up out of the valley\, stepping over a field of crocuses\, then into woods and gulleys\, and ending at the top of “Rest & Be Thankful” hill. There we stop to eat our lunches\, thankful for the spectacular views. \nWe’ll meet at the trail head Duhamel (Ross Flats) Campground (at Range Road 212C just off Highway 21 & the campground is no longer in operation). The hike will leave from ‘A62’ at 10:00. The pictures from October 26th\, 2025. \nIf you are new to WTA hikes\, then you should visit the Guided Hikes web page for essential information. For further information specific to this hike\, refer to The Waskahegan Trail Guide Book\, pages 52-53\, or contact the Hike Leader\, Mary M. (780-608-0593). \n\n\nHere are the stories of previous hikes: \n\n\n\n\nOctober 2025\n\n\n\nOctober 2024\n\n\n\nOctober 2023\n\n\n\nOctober 2022\n\n\n\nOctober 2021\n\n\n\nOctober 2020

SUMMARY:Devon Voyager Park / Lion’s Campground - Tentative
DESCRIPTION:This week’s outing makes good use of the Devon trails along the south side of the North Saskatchewan River.

SUMMARY:East Battle River (Duhamel) to Rest & Be Thankful Hill - Tentative
DESCRIPTION:Traditionally this was our first out of town hike of the season & a glorious way to start spring … and for the past few years we’ve also added it to our fall schedule\, providing another chance at an out of town hike before winter hits. \nThe hike follows the Battle River east towards Stoney Creek and Camrose. It starts by following the river\, low in the valley across open grassland\, but eventually winds its way up out of the valley\, stepping over a field of crocuses\, then into woods and gulleys\, and ending at the top of “Rest & Be Thankful” hill. There we stop to eat our lunches\, thankful for the spectacular views. \nWe’ll meet at the trail head Duhamel (Ross Flats) Campground (at Range Road 212C just off Highway 21 & the campground is no longer in operation). The hike will leave from ‘A62’ at 10:00. The pictures from April 26\, 2026 *. \nIf you are new to WTA hikes\, then you should visit the Guided Hikes web page for essential information. For further information specific to this hike\, refer to The Waskahegan Trail Guide Book\, pages 52-53 or contact the Hike Leader\, TBD\, \n\n\nHere are the stories of previous hikes: \n\n\n\n\nApril 2026 *\n\n\n\nApril 2025\n\n\n\nApril 2024\n\n\n\nApril 2023\n\n\n\nMay 2022\n\n\n\nApril 2019\n\n\n\nMay 2017\n\n\n\nMay 2015

SUMMARY:Gwynne Section - Tentative
DESCRIPTION:The huge valley starting at Gwynne and containing the Battle River as it flows eastward across Alberta\, was created in a few days. At the end of the last ice age\, glacier water trapped by ice formed huge Lake Edmonton. The water finally broke through the ice at Gwynne and the whole lake emptied\, creating the magnificent valley we will overlook. \nThis hike offers a medium-level challenge. There are several ups and downs and some interesting stiles\, but also a good amount of flat land. The pictures from May 4th\, 2025. \nThe hike will leave from A57 on Highway 822 at about 10:00 a.m.. Participants should proceed there directly on their own\, but should check the website prior to departure in case of a change. \nIf you are new to WTA hikes\, then you should visit the Guided Hikes webpage for essential information.

SUMMARY:West Battle River (A57 to Schnee Hill) - Tentative
DESCRIPTION:A wonderful section of the trail along Battle River\, going east from Gwynne.  It has a little bit of everything\, including passing by what used to be the historic Low’s Crossing (well historic from a WTA perspective). Checkout Gene Miskiw’s “The Battle Bridge Story” with loads of pictures he’s shared with us at the AGM a few years ago (“The Battle Bridge Story” and more). Unfortunately\, the combination of age & changes to navigable water regulations forced us to remove it\, which Karen Bell documented as “A Bridge too Far”. A sad day for us all\, but a reminder to the dedication and ingenuity of the original WTA members. \nWe’ll meet at the trail head “A57” on Highway 822 (bend near the top of the hill after the tracks & river) at 9:45 a.m.. The hike will leave from ‘A57’ at 10:00. The pictures from May 18th\, 2025. \nIf you are new to WTA hikes\, then you should visit the Guided Hikes webpage for essential information.
